Best answer

1. The induced fit model shows that enzymes are flexible structures in which the active site continually reshapes by its interactions with the substrate until the time the substrate is completely bound to it. It is also the point at which the final form and shape of the enzyme is determined. 

2. Three-Dimensional conformation: 

a. All enzymes have specific 3-dimensional conformation. 

b. They have one or more active sites to which substrate (reactant) combines. 

c. The points of active site where the substrate joins with the enzyme is called substrate binding site.
