A "substitute" refers to an object/person that is replacing another object/person, as in a "substitute teacher." "Substitution" refers to the action of substituting. #1: When baking cookies, margarine is a healthy substitute for butter. #2: The substitution of margarine for butter makes a healthier cookie.

Simply, 'A substitution must be made, to substitute' Hope this helps!
