Answer 1

The inhibitor has a similar shape to the usual substrate for the enzyme, and competes with it for the active site. ... A simple example of this involves malonateions inhibiting the enzyme succinate dehydrogenase

Answer 2

Dear friend,

● Answer -
Inhibition of succinate dehydrogenase by malonate is an example of competitive inhibition.

● Competitive inhibition -
- Competitive inhibitor binds to the enzyme at the active site and prevents the substrate from binding.

● Non-competitive inhibition -
- Non-competitive inhibitor binds to the enzyme at the allosteric site and changes configuration of the enzyme.

Hope this helped...
