Answer #1

Answer is Competitive inhibitor.

In the competitive inhibition of enzyme, the substrate molecule is completely prevented from binding to the active site as the active site is already bound by another substance. In the above case, the substance is a drug.

In noncompetitive inhibition, the substance binds to a site other than the active site and alters the active site so that the substrate cannot bind properly.
