Inhibitor

Real World Example

Imagine you're in a queue at a busy coffee shop, eagerly waiting for your morning caffeine fix, but the line isn't moving because the cashier has to keep stopping to fix the malfunctioning card reader. This situation is similar to how an inhibitor works in a chemical reaction, slowing down the process by introducing an obstacle. Just like the faulty card reader prevents the line from moving efficiently, an inhibitor introduces a barrier that slows down the natural progression of a chemical reaction, delaying the completion of the process.
