Given below is the graph showing the effect of substrate concentration on enzyme activity. In the presence of a competitive inhibitor, when the concentration of the substrate is progressively increased:
1. | The Km value increases but the reaction will not achieve Vmax |
2. | The Km value increases but the reaction can ultimately achieve Vmax |
3. | The Km value decreases but the reaction will not achieve Vmax |
4. | The Km value decreases but the reaction can ultimately achieve Vmax |
