Solution

The correct option is A Competitive inhibition
Competitive inhibition is the type of inhibition in which the inhibitor is similar in structure to the natural substrate. Thus inhibitor competes with the substrate for the active site of the enzyme. The apparent Km is altered (increased) and the rate of reaction slows down.
