Occluded front I think this answer is correct
The answer would be both A and B (: Which is C.
<span>Within the operon, the operator region is the most probable location of the mutation. If the mutation prevents the lac repressor protein from binding to the operator, then transcription of the lac. structural genes will not be inhibited.</span>
Answer:
by phenotypically identifying plants unable (or with an altered ability) to synthesize auxins. This approach is called reverse genetics
Explanation:
Reverse genetics is a strategy widely used in molecular genetics aimed at analyzing the function of target genes by identifying defective phenotypes of one or more organisms following the disruption of the gene. In this case, a mutagenesis approach (i.e., irradiation with X-rays) was used to induce mutations in the gene/s involved in auxin production. Subsequently, the resulting mutant phenotypes, i.e., plants with an altered ability to synthesize auxin, can be used to reveal the biological function of individual (mutated) gene sequences.
