Solution
Catalytic cycle of an enzyme:
1. The substrate binds to the active site of the enzyme (E).
2. The enzyme–substrate complex is formed (A).
3. The chemical bonds of the substrate are broken (D).
4. The products are released from the enzyme (C).
5. The free enzyme is ready to bind another molecule of substrate (B).
