Question

N monod's experiment, the b-galactosidase enzyme appeared almost immediately when lactose was added to a growing culture. which explanation is consistent with this finding?

Answer 1

In this experiment of Monod's the b-galactosidase enzyme appeared almost immediately when lactose was added to growing culture in the presence of lactose activates a pre-existing , but inactive , b-galactosidase.

Monod's experiment with the E.coli to see if when exposed to sugars, those cells always produced new enzymes or if instead they had enzymes that rearranged themselves. According to  this - the set of genes that are transcribed in the prokaryotes are under the control of operons.

An enzymes b- gaalactosidase cleaves the disaccharide lactose by which it produce the galactose and glucose which then ultimately enter in process of glycolysis. Also causes transgalactosylation reaction of lactose to allolactose.
