Why do living things use enzymes instead of heat as a source of activation energy

Adding sufficient heat would harm or kill a living thing. also enzymes are far more efficient. A single enzyme can often carry out thousands of reactions per second. Living organisms use enzymes for activation energy because they speed up chemical reactions.

How does an enzymes active site relate to its substrate

The substrate binds to the active site.

Which best describes the role of enzymes in chemical reactions
