A three dimensional dcavity bearing a specific charge by which the enzyme reacts with its substrate is called_________________?
Correct answer: A. Active site
- A. Active site
- B. Binding site
- C. Catalytic site
- D. Allosteric site
Explanation
The active site is the three-dimensional region of an enzyme with a specific shape and chemical environment that binds the substrate and carries out catalysis. The likely alternative is binding site, but a binding site may only attach a molecule, whereas the active site includes both binding and catalytic regions.
