Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The active site of an enzyme is the region that ____
A
binds with the allosteric site
B
binds with the substrate
C
binds with allosteric inhibitors
D
is inhibited by a coenzyme or a cofactor
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -The active site is the region of the enzyme where substrate molecule bind and undergo a chemical reaction.

Detailed explanation-3: -Active site is one such crevice or pocket in which the substrate fits and binds to an enzyme. With the binding of substrate, the active site activates the enzyme and the enzyme catalyzes the reaction. Hence, all the given statements are true.
