Question

Usually, a (n)______inhibitor forms a covalent bond with an amino acid group within the active site, which prevent the substrate from entering the active site or prevent catalytic activity

Answer 1

The correct answer is competitive.

Step-by-step explanation:

Competitive inhibitors bind to the active site of the enzyme causing the substrate to be unable to interact properly with it. It's called competitive because it competes with the substrate to interact with the enzyme. Noncompetitive inhibitors bind to an allosteric site changing the shape of the enzyme.
