A new antibiotic has been developed that inhibits the activity of an enzyme by competitive inhibition.  What effect will this have on the activation energy of the enzyme-catalyzed reaction?  

A.  The activation energy required for the reaction in the presence of the antibiotic would be greater than the activation energy required in the absence of the antibiotic  B.  The activation energy required for the reaction in the presence of the antibiotic would be less than the activation energy required in the absence of the antibiotic C.  The activation energy required for the reaction in the presence of the antibiotic will be the same as the activation energy required in the absence of the antibiotic Clarify Question   What is the key concept addressed by the question? What type of thinking is required?   Gather Content What do you already know about enzymes and activation energy? What factors influence activation energy?
