In which type of inhibition is it possible to restore the maximum rate of enzyme activity by adding additional substrate?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In competitive inhibition, the inhibitor competes with the substrate for binding to the active site of the enzyme, therefore adding more substrate can overcome the inhibition and restore the maximum rate of enzyme activity. In noncompetitive inhibition and cooperative inhibition, adding more substrate does not overcome the inhibition. Selective inhibition is not a recognized type of inhibition.
