You have an enzymatic reaction proceeding at the optimum ph and optimum temperature. you add a competitive inhibitor to the reaction and notice that the reaction slows down. what can you do to speed the reaction up again?

Increase the concentration of the substrate

Explanation:

Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up chemical reactions.Enzymes work on specific substrates to convert them to products at a faster rate.Enzymes have an active site where the substrate bind for the enzymatic activity to take place.Inhibitors are compounds or molecules that compete with substrates for the active sites on the enzyme.Inhibitors are either competitive or non-competitive. The non-competitive inhibitor binds the active sites permanently while competitive inhibitor temporary binds the active sites to slow down the enzymatic activity.Therefore, the effect of the competitive inhibitors may be removed by increasing the concentration of the substrate.
