Answer #1

Answer .d

Decreases the binding of endogenous site ( active site)

When allosteric inhibitor binds to allosteric site, it changes the shape of active site which reduces the binding to active site.

Eg. When an allosteric inhibitor binds to a hemoglobin, it changes the shape of oxygen receptor site, thus decreases the binding of endogenous ligand.
