Which of the following could explain this phenotype (you may choose one or more answers)? a. Mutation in the promoter of the lac operon.
b. Mutation in the operator of the lac operon.
c. Mutation in the repressor for the lac operon.
d. Mutation in the Z gene for beta galactosidase.
e. Mutation in the Y gene for Lac permease.
f. Mutation in the gene for adenylate cyclase.
