Consider the given two statements:
Assertion (A): The effect of competitive inhibition can be overcome by increasing
the substrate of the enzyme.
Reason (R): The presence of a competitive inhibitor can decrease the rate of
enzyme-catalyzed reaction by blocking the substrate from binding to the enzyme.
 
1. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains (A)
2. Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) does not correctly explain (A)
3. (A) is True but (R) is False
4. (A) is False but (R) is True

Consider the given two statements:
Assertion (A):  In competitive enzyme inhibition, the inhibitor binds to the active site of the enzyme, preventing the substrate from binding.
Reason (R):  Competitive inhibitors structurally resemble the substrate, allowing them to bind reversibly to the active site and reduce the enzyme's activity without affecting the maximal velocity (Vmax) of the reaction.
