Question

the diagram shows an enzyme molecule.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

To solve this, we recall the lock - and - key model of enzyme - substrate interaction. The substrate must fit into the enzyme's active site. So we need to find the molecule (substrate) whose shape is complementary to the enzyme's active site.

Answer:

The green - colored option (the one in the top - left, with the wavy - like shape that complements the enzyme's active site).
