| B. | Substrate binding may induce a conformational change in the enzyme, which then brings catalytic groups into proper orientation. |
| C. | Enzyme-substrate binding induces an increase in the reaction entropy, thereby catalyzing the reaction. |
| D. | Enzyme specificity is induced by enzyme-substrate binding. |
| Answer» C. Enzyme-substrate binding induces an increase in the reaction entropy, thereby catalyzing the reaction. | |
