Question

how does the structure of an enzyme help with its function? (there's a diagram and the substrate fits perfectly into the enzyme)
A.
The enzyme's shape fits its substrate's shape, thus allowing the enzyme to catalyze the appropriate reaction.
B.
The enzyme's active site can change shape in order to match any substrates in need of a catalyst.
C.
The enzyme is much larger than its substrate, thus allowing the catalyzed chemical reaction to take place inside the enzyme.
D.
The enzyme's substrate is a mirror image of the enzyme, thus allowing it to reverse any reactions initiated by the enzyme.

Answer 1

The structure of an enzyme helps with its function because

A.  The enzyme's shape fits its substrate's shape, thus allowing the enzyme to catalyze the appropriate reaction.

(A) Is the right answer choice because the substrate and the enzyme fits like a low and key  meaning that it'll work at optimum conditions.

Answer 2

Answer: Option a

Explanation:

The structure of the enzyme fits in its substrate and this allows the enzyme to catalyze the reaction.

The main function of the enzyme is to boost the chemical reaction.Boosting the chemical reaction means that there is a increase in the rate of reaction.

This increase in the rate of reaction takes place by decreasing the activation energy which in turn increases the rate of reaction.

Hence, the correct answer is Option A
