Answer=A
Explanation-
Lac IN has mutation,it can't bind to operator so Permease (Y) gives expression in both types of condition (lactose absent and lactose present).
b-gal(Z) gene makes no functional protein in both types of condition (Lactose absent and lactose present) so it gives no expression in both types of condition (lactose absent and lactose present).
So option A is correct answer rest all the options are incorrect.
Option B,C and E are incorrect because b-gal(Z) gives expression but in given condition b-gal(Z) gene is mutatet so b-gal(Z) gives no expression.
Option D are incorrect because it show no expression but Permease show expression in both condition so this is incorrect.

In this problem you will explore how to solve problems involving partial diploid lac operon bacterial strains. Bacterial strains that are "partially diploid" have two copies of the lac operon because they aquired a plasmid carrying just the lac operon region. One copy of the lac operon region is on the recipient's bacterial chromosome, and the other copy is on the P plasmid that was introduced into the cell by conjugation. Partial diploid genotypes are written with the P segment...
The lac operon in E. coli is a well-studied gene system, and
β-galactosidase (β-gal) is the product of the lacZ gene. The
diploid conditions represent the addition of a plasmid carrying
different components of the lac operon. Determine if β-gal will be
generated under the conditions. Assume that glucose is absent. A +
in the genotype indicates a functioning gene, while a – indicates a
loss-of-function allele. The OC is an operator mutant that cannot
bind the lacI protein. Use...
The lac operon contains a DNA sequence known as the lac promoter (P or P+ for wild type; P– for mutant (RNA polymerase does not bind)) that serves as the RNA polymerase binding site. The lac operon also contains a DNA sequence known as the Lac operator (O or O+ for wild type; O– or Oc for mutant (lac repressor cannot bind)) which is the binding site for lac repressor. The lac repressor, a protein, is encoded by the lac...
4. Nutritional status, mutation, and expression of the lac operon. For each of the following conditions, indicate how much (a lot, a little, or none) of the lacZ gene (z-gene) product, beta- galactosidase, is being synthesized. NUTRITIONAL STATUS OF THE BACTERIA +lactose/-glucose +lactose/+glucose -lactose/+glucose genetic status normal (no mutation) mutation a mutation b mutationc important: these are nor the same mutations as the ones in your class handout mutation a: a mutation in the start codon for the lacA (A-gene)...
Lac Operon IPOZY v3 In the genotype presented (genomic plus plasmid genes), which of the following statements is consistent with the expression phenotype? genome: I+P+ O- Z+ Y- plasmid: I+ P- O+ Z- Y+ constitutive expression of β-gal and permease induced in the presence of lactose constitutive expression of β-gal only constitutive expression of β-gal and permease β-gal and permease induced in the presence of lactose constitutive expression of permease and β-gal induced in the presence of lactose
Predict the phenotype of a lac Y mutant, which is a mutation in the gene for lactose permease. a. The lac genes would be expressed efficiently only in the absence of lactose. b. The lac genes would be expressed efficiently until the lactose supply already in the cell is exhausted. c. The lac genes would be expressed continuously. d. Expression of the lac genes would cease immediately.

The Lac operon is an inducible set of genes found in bacteria cells that helps the bacteria to metabolize the disaccharide lactose. When it is turned on it produces proteins that pump lactose into the bacteria cell and break it down into glucose and galactose, which can then be used by the bacteria as a source of energy The two figures below show the Lac Operon along with the lacl gene (which regulates the Lac operon...
1. Which of the following organisms would produce functional lac products in the presence of IPTG? A. Is Oc Z- Y+ A+ B. Is Oc Z- Y- A- C. I+ O+ Z+ Y+ A+ D. I-Oc Z+ Y+ A+ E. Both Is Oc Z- Y+ A+ and Is Oc Z- Y+ A+ are correct 2. Which of the following statements is true about a lac operon with this genotype? I-d O+ Z+ Y- A- A. The operon is repressible. B....
I really need help with these questions!! 2. Bernard Davis tested the "cross-feeding" interpretation of some data that showed the phenotype of one microbe as capable of being changed by another microbe. His contribution can be summarized as: A) using one strain of microbes as food for another, and then evaluating the impact upon microbial phenotype. B) combining microbes with complementing auxotrophs in a single tube and then analyzing the cells of gene exchange. C) placing a barrier between bacterial...
3. Mutations in bacteria that affect gene regulation may have a cis- or trans-effect on the expression of the protein-encoding genes in an operon? How would the following mutations affect the expression of the lac operon? Assume there could be more than one lac operon in the cell and that no glucose is present. A. A mutation in the operator site that prevents the lac repressor from binding. B. A mutation in the lacI gene that prevents allolactose from binding,...
