Question

explain the induced fit hypothesis and the lock and key model

Answer 1

Answer:

The Induced-Fit Model

The lock-and-key model states that the substrate acts as a 'key' to the 'lock' of the active site. ... This theory maintains that the active site and the substrate are, initially, not perfect matches for each other. Rather, the substrate induces a change of shape in the enzyme

Answer 2

Helo mate here your ans

Lock and Key states that there is no change needed and that only a certain type will fit. However induced fit says the active site will change to help to substrate fit. In lock and key the active site has one single entry however in induced fit the active site is made of two components.

Hope this ans help you...
