How does the shape of the active site contribute to an enzyme's function?
The active site is flexible and can change shape to fit any substrate.
The active site has a shape that is complementary to the shape of the substrate.
The active site has no effect on the enzyme's function.
The active site breaks down the substrate.
Explanation
