Increasing the substrate concentration in an enzymatic reaction could overcome which of the following? a) the need for a coenzymeb) allosteric inhibitionc) competitive inhibitiond) insufficient cofactors

Competitive inhibition

Explanation:

Enzymes increase the rate of chemical reactions by working on specific substrates.Enzyme activity is affected by various factors which include, pH, substrate concentration, temperature, and enzyme inhibitors.Enzyme inhibitors are molecules that affect enzyme activity by binding to the active sites of the enzyme.Enzyme inhibitors are classified as competitive or non-competitive. Competitive inhibitors compete with substrates for the active sites on the enzyme. The effect of competitive inhibitors can be reversed by increasing the concentration of substrates.Non-competitive inhibitors, on the other hand, bind on the allosteric sites on the enzyme permanently. The effect of non-competitive inhibitors is irreversible.
