Answer:

D.) repressor DNA-binding site mutation

Explanation:

lacl prevents the repressor polypeptide is a mutant that prevent operon from binding lactose, and thus will bind to the operator and be non-inducible.. This mutant will represses the lac operon whether lactose is present or not and the lac operon will not be expressed. It is also called“super-supperesor".

The lacI locus – One type of mutant allele of lacI (callled I-) prevents the production of a repressor polypeptide or produces a polypeptide that will not allow to bind to the operator sequence.

This is also a constitutive expresser of the lac operon because absence of repressor binding permits transcription.

Answer:

There are no options in this question but generally a sample of DNA can be increased;

By using Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) technique.

Explanation:

This question describes the application of making molecular biology to solving a crime problem; a branch called forensics. In this case where an insufficient small amount of DNA sample was recovered from the blood in a crime scene, the polymerase chain reaction technique, commonly known as PCR can be used to increase the DNA sample.

In the 1980's, a molecular technique used to amplify part of a template DNA strand to produce several copies of it, was invented by Kary Mullis and his colleagues. This amplification refers to the numerical increase in the number of DNA sequence.
