Question

How does the structure of this enzyme help with its function? A. The enzyme's active site is amorphous and can change its shape to fit any substrate. B. The enzyme's shape complements the substrate's shape, so it only catalyzes specific reactions. C. Since the enzyme's shape matches the substrate's shape, it catalyzes only reverse reactions. D. Since the enzyme is larger than the substrate, catalytic reactions can occur within the enzyme itself.

Answer 1

The enzyme in the picture have a site of action in the form for a specific substrate. Therefore, the correct alternative for this enzyme structure and how its help with the function is:

B. The enzyme's
