Answer:

Allosteric regulation is happening.

Step-by-step explanation:

The allosteric site, which is separate from the active site, is where allosteric regulator molecules bind to the enzyme. An enzyme can be inhibited or activated by allosteric regulators.

Hope this helps

(I personally think this should go in chemistry, as this is a type of biochemistry, but science is science :D)
