What is a competitive inhibitor?
A competitive inhibitor is a type of enzyme that binds to a different site on the enzyme than the active site.
A competitive inhibitor is a type of enzyme that enhances the activity of the substrate.
A competitive inhibitor is a type of enzyme that only inhibits the activity of non-competitive inhibitors.
A competitive inhibitor is a type of enzyme inhibitor that competes with the substrate for binding to the active site of the enzyme.
Answer explanation
A competitive inhibitor is an enzyme inhibitor that competes with the substrate for binding to the active site of the enzyme.

How does a competitive inhibitor affect enzyme activity?
It increases the enzyme's activity by binding to the active site and enhancing substrate binding.
It has no effect on the enzyme's activity.
It completely inhibits the enzyme's activity by destroying the active site.
It reduces the enzyme's activity by binding to the active site and preventing substrate binding.
Answer explanation
A competitive inhibitor reduces enzyme activity by binding to the active site and preventing substrate binding.
