Question

What statement best describes what happens to a substrate after it bonds to an enzyme? The enzyme/substrate complex is aligned to improve access during a reaction. The enzyme breaks the substrate apart to prepare for the reaction. The substrate uses enzyme energy to start the reaction. The active site releases the substrate and replaces it with an inhibitor.

Answer 1

I would go with The enzyme/substrate complex is aligned to improve access during reaction that sound like it fits i hope you get the answer.

Answer 2

The correct answer would be the first option.

Enzymes are bio-catalyst which increase the rate of biochemical reaction taking place in our body.

They reduce the activation energy of the reaction by forming the enzyme-substrate complex.

A specific substrate binds to the active site of a specific enzyme in order to form an enzyme-substrate complex.

It is then converted into enzyme-product complex after which product is released and the enzyme is ready for another round of reaction.

Enzyme + Substrate → Enzyme-Substrate complex → Enzyme-Product complex → Enzyme + Product.
