(a)
Interpretation: The given statement, whether describes a reversible competitive inhibitor, a reversible noncompetitive inhibitor, or an irreversible inhibitor has to be stated.
Concept introduction: A molecule whose shape and charge distribution sufficiently resembles an enzyme substrate is known as a competitive enzyme inhibitor.
The molecule that binds to the location other than the active site is known as reversible noncompetitive inhibitor.
The molecule that inactivates the enzymes by forming a covalent bond with the side chains of the amino acids at the active site of the enzyme is known as irreversible enzyme inhibitor.
