Enzymes perform the critical task of lowering a reaction's activation energy—that is, the amount of energy that must be put in for the reaction to begin

Yes , An enzyme will interact with only one type of substance or group of substances, called the substrate, to catalyze a certain kind of reaction.

Hopes this helps :)
