ENZYMES

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
After an enzyme catalyzes a chemical reaction, the enzyme is released from the complex and the enzyme is then
A
restored to its original state
B
destroyed
C
chemically changed
D
converted to an electrically charged molecule
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Once an enzyme binds to a substrate and catalyzes the reaction, the enzyme is released, unchanged, and can be used for another reaction. This means that for each reaction, there does not need to be a 1:1 ratio between enzyme and substrate molecules.

Detailed explanation-2: -Enzymes catalyze chemical reactions by lowering activation energy barriers and converting substrate molecules to products. Enzymes bind with chemical reactants called substrates. A specific chemical substrate matches this site like a jigsaw puzzle piece and makes the enzyme specific to its substrate.
