How are substrates like keys and enzymes like locks?
Enzymes have an active site that is specific for a substrate - therefore enzymes only work when the right substrate is present. The surfaces of the enzyme and the substrate fit together - like a lock and key - allowing the enzyme to fulfil its function. The theory of "induced fit" is more widely accepted - it is similar, but the enzyme shape changes to accommodate the substrate.
