Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Each enzyme only has 1 substrate that will fit its active site. What is this called? Reusablility.
Detailed explanation-2: -In biology and biochemistry, the active site is the region of an enzyme where substrate molecules bind and undergo a chemical reaction. The active site consists of amino acid residues that form temporary bonds with the substrate (binding site) and residues that catalyse a reaction of that substrate (catalytic site).
Detailed explanation-3: -Specificity is a property of the enzyme and describes how restrictive the enzyme is in its choice of substrate; a completely specific enzyme would have only one substrate.
