Step 1: Understand what an enzyme is. An enzyme is a protein that helps speed up chemical reactions in living things.
Step 2: Learn what 'immobilized' means. It means that something is fixed in place and cannot move freely.
Step 3: Combine the two ideas. An immobilized enzyme is an enzyme that is fixed to a solid surface.
Step 4: Know why this is useful. When the enzyme is attached to a solid support, it is easier to separate it from the mixture after the reaction is done.
