The subject of this conversation is Substrates attach to the __ of enzymes.
Cevap: Substrates attach to the active site of enzymes.
Enzymes are proteins that act as catalysts in biological reactions. They facilitate and speed up these reactions by lowering the activation energy required for the reaction to occur.
The active site of an enzyme is a region that is specifically shaped to bind to a particular substrate. When the substrate binds to the active site, it forms an enzyme-substrate complex. This interaction is highly specific, similar to a lock and key mechanism, where the shape and chemical properties of the active site match the shape and chemical properties of the substrate.
Once the substrate is bound to the active site, the enzyme catalyzes the reaction by facilitating the conversion of the substrate to the product(s). After the reaction is complete, the products are released from the active site, and the enzyme is free to bind to another substrate molecule.
In summary, substrates attach to the active site of enzymes, allowing for efficient catalysis of biological reactions.
