Answer: alleles

Explanation:

Alleles are different forms of a given gene. Alleles are mutated forms of a given gene which controls a particular trait. For instance, the gene that codes for hemoglobin is denoted with the letter A but the gene has another variant denoted by S. In abnormal hemoglobin S (sickle hemoglobin), glutamate is replaced by valine at position 6 in the amino acid sequence of the two beta chains of hemoglobin. This change in the amino acid sequence causes the red blood cells to have a sickle shape resulting in sickle cell disease. Therefore hemoglobin A and S are alleles of a given gene.

With reference to the induced fit model, describe how the tertiary structure of a named enzyme facilitates its function as a bio
Olenka [21]

The induced-fit model includes the change in the conformational site of the substrate and enzyme. It is done till the enzyme completely binds the substrate. This will then activates the enzyme to perform its work.

<h3>What is induced fit theory?</h3>

Induced fit theory or model suggest that the activation site of enzymes and the binding site of substrates undergo some conformational changes to fit into each other.

This binding results in activation of the enzyme and as the enzyme has a three-dimensional tertiary structure, this would help it to get fitted into the substrate.

Thus, with reference to the induced fit model tertiary structure of enzyme facilitates its function as a biological catalyst.
