प्रश्न
What do we actually mean when we say that the "enzymes are specific in their action"?
उत्तर
Enzymes are specific in their action because each enzyme catalyzes only a particular reaction by binding to a specific substrate. This specificity is due to the unique shape of the enzyme’s active site, which fits only a particular substrate, similar to a "lock and key" mechanism.
