Best Answer

The substrate is the substance (or substances) that attaches to the enzyme's active site before the reaction occurs.

The product is the substance (or substances) that is formed after the enzyme has worked on the substrate.///

The material or substance on which an enzyme acts is a substrate as used in Biology. It also can mean an underlying layer. The product is what is formed (Biology).
