In chemistry, the term substrate is highly context-dependent. [1] Broadly speaking, it can refer either to a chemical species being observed in a chemical reaction, or to a surface on which other chemical reactions or microscopy are performed. In the former sense, a reagent is added to the substrate to generate a product through
In biology, a substrate is the surface on which an organism (such as a plant, fungus, or animal) lives.A substrate can include biotic or abiotic materials and animals. For example, encrusting algae that lives on a rock (its substrate) can be itself a substrate for an animal that lives on top of the algae.
Substrate is the earthy material that forms or collects at the bottom of an aquatic habitat. It is made of sediments that may consist of: Silt – A loose, granular material with mineral particles 0.5 mm or less in diameter.
The amount of substrate needed to achieve a given rate of reaction is also important. This is given by the Michaelis–Menten constant (K m), which is the substrate concentration required for an enzyme to reach one-half its maximum reaction rate; generally, each enzyme has a characteristic K M for a given substrate.
The presence of Pre-Finno-Ugric substrate in Sami languages was demonstrated by Ante Aikio. [1] Janne Saarikivi points out that similar substrate words are present in Finnic languages as well, but in much smaller numbers. [2] The number of substrate words in Sámi likely exceeds one thousand words. [3]

Substrate is a term used in materials science and engineering to describe the base material on which processing is conducted. Surfaces have different uses, including producing new film or layers of material and being a base to which another substance is bonded.
