The enzyme combines two smaller substrates to form a larger one.
Eg. Photosynthesis
The enzymes bind to one larger substrate and helps it break down into two smaller products.
Eg. amylase breaking startch into two maltese units.
The enzyme and substrate have a very similar shape and structure but do not fully fit together perfectly. They both have to alter their shape slightly to get the greatest surface area attachment and provide the greatest results.
Here the enzyme slightly changes its shape to fit the substrate.
The enzyme and substrate have a specific shape that both fit perfectly into each other, with no need for either to alter their shape or structure in any way.
Here, neither the enzyme nor the substrate alter their shape or structure for the reaction to take place.
Finally, enzymes for by binding to the substrate(s) and holding them in such a way that the chemical bonds in the substrate(s) are easily broken or combined.
