The enzyme still remains and can be used again for another reaction.
It returns to its original shape, and is reused. Look up the 'lock and key' and 'induced fit' models.
The enzyme will be re-used in another reaction.
They actually bind to a substrate as the term reactant is usually used in chemistry. They fit into what we call an active site just like a key will fit into a lock. The key must be the correct key or the reaction will not occur. So the enzyme is said to be specific for that substrate.
Enzymes and substrates will bind together to catalyse chemical reactions. The spot on the enzyme where the substrate will bind is called the active site of the enzyme. The enzyme and the substrate are usually a pretty close fit, hence the naming of the induced fit model.
Enzymes speed up the chemical reactions because when it forms a complex with its substrates, it reduces the activation energy that the reaction needs to proceed. Remember that the reaction itself is not altered, only the rate of reaction, and that the enzyme is not used or altered in the reactions.

prohibitors are used to enzyme reaction
reaction will increase

Enzymes are not used up in a chemical reaction. Usually, the enzyme will "reset" and be ready to use in another reaction. This is due to the fact that enzymes are proteins, and their shape is what they use in a chemical reaction. Initially, the enzyme has a particular shape. Something happens to the enzyme (usually a shape change, called a conformation change, brought on by the presence of two or more chemical reactants), and the enzyme catalyzes the reaction. After the reaction is catalyzed, the product is released, and the enzyme can "relax." This means it goes back to its normal shape, ready to do it all over again.
H2SO4 is used to denature the enzyme and stop the reaction instantly. by adding H2SO4,it will prevent further reaction of the enzyme onto the substrate and the rate of enzyme reaction can be measured in the specific time
