When to use "in which", "at which", "of which", etc.

0Hi there,02br
02br
00I am a little confused on when it'd appropriate to use "01b00in 02b00which", "01b00at02b00 which", "01b00of 02b00which", etc.02br
02br
00Let me give you an example.02br
02br
00Here's an extract from my Biology textbook and it reads02br
02br
01font00"molecule 01b00into02b00 which substrate molecule can fit..."02font02br
02br
00Assuming that the text is grammatically correct, why must it be "01b00into 02b00which" and not other kind of "which-es" like say "01b00in02b00 which"02br
02br
01font00"warp speed 01b00at 02b00which your bank account gets 'flooded..." 02font02br
02br
00Why must it be "01b00at02b00 which" and not anything else...?02br
02br
00Would someone be so kind to explain?0-
