← ScienceWhich outcome arises when product concentration inhibits enzymatic activity?
A)Equilibrium shift towards reactant formation✓
B)Increased entropy within the system
C)Elevated catalytic reaction efficiency
D)Increased intermediate binding affinity
💡 Explanation
When a product inhibits its own formation, Le Chatelier’s principle applies; this shifts equilibrium toward reactants because the system seeks to relieve stress, rather than drive further product formation; therefore, enzymatic activity decreases, rather than enhances itself under these conditions.
