Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Enzymes act on substrates to form products. Competitive inhibitors block the active - site of enzymes. Active sites are regions on enzymes where substrates bind. Substrates are the starting materials for an enzymatic reaction. Byproducts are substances formed in addition to the main products, but the general term for what is formed after an enzyme acts on a substrate is products. Among the given options, none is completely correct, but byproducts are substances formed as a result of the reaction, so it is the closest in this context.

Answer:

byproducts
