The active site of the enzyme, now in close proximity of the substrate breaks the chemical bonds of the substrate and the new enzyme- product complex is formed. |
| 4. |
The enzyme releases the products of the reaction and the enzyme is used up and cannot be used again. |

90. Regarding the primary structure of a protein:
| I: |
The sequence of amino acids i.e., the positional information in a protein is called the primary structure of a protein. |
