Substrate Competitive Inhibitor Molecule Similar Shape Form Enzymes

Front What is a competitive inhibitor
Back molecule that has a similar shape to the substrate which allows it to form an enzymes substrate complex and compete with the substrate therefore the substrate cannot bind, increasing the substrate concentration reduces the effect of the inhibitor.
