The substrate binds to the active site.
An enzyme's active site is where the substrate binds and undergoes a chemical reaction. The active site has a specific shape that complements the substrate's shape, allowing for a precise fit. This interaction facilitates the enzyme to catalyze the chemical reaction efficiently.
It will only bind with the enzymes active site of the shapes are complimentary and enzymes are very specific

Enzymes are proteins, which are made up of amino acids. Each enzyme has a different sequence of amino acids and changing even one amino acid will mean that the tertiary structure of the enzyme will be lost and so will it's active site. As enzymes are substrate specific, only a certain substrate will bind to its active site, due to its amino acid sequence determining the shape of the active site.

The active site is the specific region of the enzyme which combines with the substrate. The binding of the substrate to the enzyme causes changes in the distribution of electrons in the chemical bonds of the substrate and ultimately causes the reactions that lead to the formation of products.

The feature of enzymes that controls they substrate they act on is called the active site of the enzyme. The enzyme is a protein. Each active site is specific too the substrate which it acts on. The substrate may fit into the active site via a lock and key mechanism or by an induced fit. The active site attracts and binds with the substrate in order to allow a reaction to occur faster. The substrates are also called the reactants. =)
Competitive inhibitors bind to the active site of enzymes, blocking the substrate from binding and inhibiting the enzyme's activity.
