Question
Which of the following statements is false for non-competitive inhibition?
Explanation
It can be reversed by increasing substrate concentration is the correct choice because it does not accurately describe or belong to the category addressed in this question. In the context of Enzyme Inhibition, the other options (Km remains constant, Vmax decreases, and The inhibitor binds to both enzyme and enzyme-substrate complex) are all valid and well-established concepts. It can be reversed by increasing substrate concentration is either unrelated to the topic, describes a different biological process, or represents a common misconception. Questions framed as 'which is NOT' require students to identify the exception among otherwise correct statements, demanding comprehensive knowledge of the topic rather than recognition of a single fact.
