Question

As an enzyme fits into a substrate at the active site, it undergoes a slight change to fit into the substrate. This process is defined by a concept known as the

A. feedback inhibition model.
B. induced fit model.
C. active enzyme inhibition scheme.
D. facilitated diffusion process.

Answer 1

B. induced fit model.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the induced fit model, the substrate binds to its respective enzyme at the active site of the enzyme. This binding stimulates some conformational changes in the enzyme. These changes are brought about to facilitate the more complementary binding of enzyme and substrate. The conformational adaptation in the enzyme stimulated by binding of the substrate is called induced fit.

Answer 2

Active enzyme inhibition scheme will inhibit the enzyme so it must be induced fit model.
B. induced fit model.
