<em>C. Binding to the operator.</em>

Explanation:

When the repressor starts binding to the operator, it can not transcribe, or make mRNA. This makes it so the RNA polymerase can't go onto the promoter and bind to it, which is a crucial part in making mRNA. The operator functions by making sure the certain DNA gets made, so it is very important. The lac repressor will turn off the expression of the lac genes by binding to the operator.

I believe it is gel electrophoresis.
Gel electrophoresis is a techniwue used to separate DNA fragments or other macromolecules such as RNA and proteins based on their size and charge. It can also determine the actual size of a piece of DNA by examining it next to a standard "yardstick" made up of DNA fragments of known sizes.
