Answer:Protein (the apoenzyme) and active site (cofactor) is the correct answer.

The two components are often found as part of an enzyme are

Protein (the apoenzyme)

proteins increase the rate of reaction that takes place within the living organism.

proteins consist of one or more chains of amino acids that make macromolecules.

They perform important functions within the organism such as proteins function is to catalyze the reactions that are necessary to our metabolism.

Active site (cofactor)

Active site:is the site where the enzyme binds with the substrate to initiates the reaction.
