(a)
Interpretation:
The representation that represents the enzyme-substrate complex should be selected from the following:
Concept Introduction:
Enzymes are defined as a biological catalyst for various reactions in living organisms. Enzymes are like all catalyst as it also increases the rate reaction but they themselves do not change permanently during the process. Enzyme does not alter the position of equilibrium and the relative energy of both the reactant and the products. Reaction, when catalyzed by an enzyme, increases the
(b)
Interpretation:
The representation that represents the competitive inhibition should be selected from the following:
