Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
These are organic molecules that change the shape of the active site. They are needed to be present for substrate and enzyme bindings.
A
Feedback inhibitors
B
Coenzymes
C
Hydrogen bonds
D
Catalase
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -We have found the correct answer to this question. The scientific term that describes the irreversible change in shape of an enzyme’s active site is denaturation.

Detailed explanation-2: -Allosteric regulation The allosteric inhibitor binds to an enzyme at a site other than the active site. The shape of the active site is altered so that the enzyme can no longer bind to its substrate. The right part of this diagram shows allosteric activation.

Detailed explanation-3: -When the substrate binds to the active site of the enzyme, it forms enzyme-substrate comlex (ES complex) and it happens due to the catalytic actionSo, the correct option is (D).
