Answer:
if the lacI gene, in the genetically engineered fluorescent strain were non-mutant but the lacO sequence on the chromosome is mutated to lacOc then,
in the presence of the inducer, the cells fluorescence will show
yellow; red
in the absence of inducer, the cells fluorescence will show,
yellow; no fluorescence.
Explanation:
when lacO is mutated with lacOc then constitutive mutation happens which lets the system to be on.
