← ScienceWhich consequence results when an inhibitor reduces enzyme-substrate affinity?
A)Michaelis constant value will increase✓
B)Reaction order goes to zero
C)Turnover number increases dramatically
D)Catalyst surface area dramatically increases
💡 Explanation
A reduced affinity causes a Michaelis-Menten constant increase, because enzyme activity decreases, therefore Km rises, rather than other kinetic factors changing or catalysts experiencing alterations.
