Answer: (C) un-competitive inhibition
Un-competitive inhibition occurs when the degree of inhibition is independent of the substrate concentration, as the inhibitor binds only to the enzyme-substrate complex. This contrasts with competitive, mixed, and non-competitive inhibitions, which depend on substrate concentration.
