Actually a substrate is a reactant. It undergoes a chemical reaction to yield a product. The difference is that a catalyst acts upon it to increment the rate of the reaction (by reducing the activation energy required).
The reactant that binds to an enzyme's active site is called a substrate.
Reactant
It acts as a reactant. In a chemical reaction A substrate is a molecule that is reacted on by enzymes.
D. substrate (a specific reactant acted upon by an enzyme is called the enzyme's substrate.)
A reactant that binds to a catalyst is known as a substrate. Substrates bind to the active site of the catalyst, where the chemical reaction takes place. This binding lowers the activation energy required for the reaction to occur.
If the reactant is affected by an enzyme, it then referred to as a SUBSTRATE.
Generally in an enzyme-catalyzed reaction, the reactant is called the substrate, which in association with the enzyme forms the product.
The reactant that binds to an enzyme's active site is called a substrate.

Two different bacterias using different electron acceptors can survive on the same substrate because they do not compete directly.
