On one part of an enzyme is an active site (which is what the substrate binds to) that is shaped a certain way, say a triangle. A substrate that's in the shape of a square won't fit onto the triangle/the enzyme - but a substrate that has an indent in the shape of a triangle will. The way an enzyme recognizes its substrate is if it can attach itself to the enzyme's active site.
What else can I help you with?
The binding together of an enzyme and a substrate forms a what?
enzyme-substrate complex
The binding together of an enzyme and a substrate forms a?
The substrates are converted into products, which are released.
The substance acted upon by an enzyme is called its?
A substrate is the substance acted upon by an enzyme. The enzyme substrate complex is when an enzyme molecule combines with its substrates.
When a substrate fits into an active site of an enzyme what is formed?
When a substrate fits into the active site of an enzyme, an enzyme-substrate complex is formed. This complex allows for the enzyme to catalyze a specific chemical reaction on the substrate.
Where does an uncompetitive inhibitor bind in relation to the enzyme-substrate complex?
An uncompetitive inhibitor binds to the enzyme-substrate complex after the substrate has already bound to the enzyme.
The binding together of an enzyme and a substrate forms a what?
enzyme-substrate complex
What is an enzyme considered because of its ability to recognize the shape of a particular molecule?
An enzyme is considered a substrate-specific catalyst because it is able to recognize and bind to a specific substrate molecule due to the complementary shape of their active sites. This specificity allows enzymes to efficiently catalyze chemical reactions by facilitating the formation of enzyme-substrate complexes.
What to enzymes do in an enzyme-substrate?
in an enzyme-substrate complex, the enzyme acts on the substrate .
What is it called when and enzyme and substrate come together?
When an enzyme and substrate come together, it is called the enzyme-substrate complex. This complex is a temporary intermediate state in which the enzyme binds to the substrate to catalyze a chemical reaction.
The binding together of an enzyme and a substrate forms a?

A substrate is the substance acted upon by an enzyme. The enzyme substrate complex is when an enzyme molecule combines with its substrates.
When a substrate fits into an active site of an enzyme what is formed?
When a substrate fits into the active site of an enzyme, an enzyme-substrate complex is formed. This complex allows for the enzyme to catalyze a specific chemical reaction on the substrate.
When properly aligned the enzyme and substrate form an enzyme substrate?
complex
Reactant affected by an enzyme?
If the reactant is affected by an enzyme, it then referred to as a SUBSTRATE.
Enzyme inhibitors disrupt normal interactions between an enzyme and its what?
substrate
what is a substrate in an enzyme?
A substrate is when the enzyme can only join onto certain substances
Where does an uncompetitive inhibitor bind in relation to the enzyme-substrate complex?
An uncompetitive inhibitor binds to the enzyme-substrate complex after the substrate has already bound to the enzyme.
