Answer:

A.

Explanation:

Lac Operon is defined as an operon that is used by E.coli for transporting and metabolizing lactose.

Allolactose is a disaccharide like lactose, that binds to lac repressor and restrict its binding with DNA. It triggers expression of a operon or gene.

So, adding allolactose to the bacterial growth media, block the activity of lac repressor and trigger the activity of bacteria to metabolize the sugar lactose.

Hence, the correct answer is "A."
