Substrate molecules bind to enzymes at specific active sites thus activating the enzyme. The enzyme then reduces the activation energy required for a bond to form between the substrate molecules, so bonding (the reaction) proceeds at a faster rate.

How does an enzymes interact with a substance?

Enzymes interact with substrates by binding only with specific substrates. Enzymes will then alter the shape of the substrate in order to induce reaction.


Is it true or false that Enzymes interact with specific substrates?

True. Enzymes are highly specific in their interactions with substrates. Each enzyme is designed to interact with a particular substrate based on the shape and chemical properties of both the enzyme and the substrate. This specificity allows enzymes to catalyze specific reactions efficiently.


How proteins work?

Proteins work by interactions. Enzymes can interact with its substrate and can cause chemical changes. Hormones can interact with its receptors to trigger signalling events.


What is meant by the enzyme specificity?

Enzymes work on one substrate specifically. This is why there is millions of different types of enzymes to interact with all the molecules they need to metabolically and chemically react with.


Why do enzymes react?

The molecule that an enzyme react with, works on, is called a substrate. The substrate varies from one enzyme to another. The active site is the 3-D shape on the enzyme where a substrate binds for the reaction to take place.


Where does an enzymes join with a substrate?

The enzyme substrate complex


What to enzymes do in an enzyme-substrate?

in an enzyme-substrate complex, the enzyme acts on the substrate .


Compeition among various enzymes for the same substrate?

Competition among various enzymes for same substrate


How does an enzymes active relate to its substrate?

The substrate binds to the active site.


The molecule on which an enzyme acts is called an?

The substance on which enzymes act are called substrates.


How does substrate concentration and pH affect enzymes?

Substrate concentration will affect enzymes because substrates are specific to enzymes. The pH will affect enzymes because certain enzymes will work better in certain pH levels.


How does an enzymes activate site relate to its substrate?

The substrate binds to the active site.
