<prompt> Organophosphates act by inhibiting the enzyme acetylcholinesterase. Which type of enzyme inhibitors are theyCompetitive and reversibleNon competitive and IrreversibleUncompetitive and reversibleCompetitive and Irreversible  <response>: Both organophosphates and carbamates cause competitive inhibition of acetylcholineesterase by binding to esteratic site. However organophosphates are irreversible and most carbamatesexcept carbaryl and propoxur are reversible inhibitors.thus, the type of inhibition of acetylcholine esterase caused by organophosphates is competitive and Irreversible.
