Given below is the graph showing the effect of substrate concentration on enzyme activity. In the presence of a competitive inhibitor, when the concentration of the substrate is progressively increased :

 
1. The Km value is increased but the reaction will not achieve Vmax
2. The Km value is increased but the reaction can ultimately achieve Vmax
3. The Km value is decreased but the reaction will not achieve Vmax
4. The Km value is decreased but the reaction can ultimately achieve Vmax
