They are consumed by the reactions they catalyze. - This statement is not true. Enzymes are not consumed or used up in the reactions they catalyze. They can be used repeatedly and are not changed or consumed in the process. b. They are usually made of amino Show more…

Enzymes facilitate chemical reactions that result in changes to a substrate. How does the induced fit model of enzymes and substrates explain their function? a. Both enzyme and substrate undergo dynamic changes, inducing the transitions state of the substrate. b. The enzyme induces a change in the substrate, but is not changed itself during the reaction. c. The substrates attach to the enzyme and the chemical reaction proceeds. d. The enzyme changes shape to fit the substrate causing the transition state to occur.
