Answer 1

Answer:

active site

 is catalytic activity of enzyme?

The catalytic activity of enzymes involves the binding of their substrates to form an enzyme-substrate complex (ES). The substrate binds to a specific region of the enzyme, called the active site.

Answer 2

The catalytic activity of an enzyme is restricted to its small portion called active site.

• The active site of the enzyme has two definite regions i.e the binding site and the catalytic site.
• The binding site helps in the recognition and binding of the substrate molecule to produce an ES complex. This reaction activates the catalytic site.
• Activated catalytic site catalyzes the reaction of formation of the  product(s).
• Enzyme after catalysis remain unaltered and detaches itself from the product.
