- All of the following statements about competitive and non-competitive inhibitors are true EXCEPT:(a) Competitive inhibitors are structurally similar to anenzyme’s substrate and bind to the enzyme’s allostericsite.(b) Competitive inhibitors work by competing with a sub-strate for binding to an enzyme’s active site.(c) Noncompetitive inhibitors can bind at sites other thanthe active site of an enzyme, distorting the tertiary pro-tein structure, which alters the shape of the active site,rendering it ineffective for substrate binding.(d) Some noncompetitive inhibitors bind reversibly whilesome bind irreversibly to their enzyme.(e) b and d.arrow_forwardAn enzyme has 10 times greater affinity for substrate "A" than for substrate "B".
