Q1. During the formation of the enzyme-substrate complex, the substrate undergoes a high-energy, unstable state before becoming products. This is the:
Answer: Transition state
Explanation: The transition state is the unstable mid-point of a reaction; the product state represents the final stable molecules after catalysis completes.
