part d

what name is given to the reactants in an enzymatically catalyzed reaction?

products
substrate
active sites
reactors

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Enzymes are proteins that act as organic catalysts, speeding up chemical reactions by lowering the activation energy. They are highly specific in binding to substrates (the reactants in an enzymatically - catalyzed reaction). They are not a source of energy for endergonic reactions and are not inorganic.

Answer:

First question: is an organic catalyst
Second question: substrate
