The term used to describe chemical reactions in cells is metabolism. Substrate refers to the specific molecule that is acted upon by an enzyme. Coenzymes are molecules that assist enzymes in a reaction. Receptor sites are the specific locations on a cell where a molecule can bind and elicit a response. Active site is the specific region on an enzyme where the substrate binds and the chemical reaction occurs.
