Question

when enzyme action stops due to a buildup of end product, this control is called multiple choice competitive inhibition enzyme repression enzyme induction none of the choices are correct. feedback inhibition (negative feedback)

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Feedback inhibition occurs when the end - product of a metabolic pathway builds up and inhibits an earlier step, often an enzyme - catalyzed reaction. Competitive inhibition involves a molecule competing with the substrate for the active site of an enzyme. Enzyme repression is related to gene regulation affecting enzyme production. Enzyme induction is also a regulatory mechanism where the presence of a substrate induces the production of an enzyme.

Answer:

E. feedback inhibition (negative feedback)
