A graph showing the effect of substrate concentration [ S ] on enzyme activity is given below. The correct statement(s) is/are:

Options

  1. AThe reaction velocity reaches a maximum at low substrate concentration.
  2. BIf a competitive inhibitor binds to the active site of the enzyme, it would not change the maximum velocity.
  3. CIf an inhibitor that closely resembles the substrate binds to the active site of the enzyme, it would increase
  4. DIn the presence of a competitive inhibitor, increasing substrate concentration will not affect enzyme activity

Correct answer

C. If an inhibitor that closely resembles the substrate binds to the active site of the enzyme, it would increase
