A partial diploid in E. coli is created so that LacI is no longer expressed from the genome and is instead expressed from a plasmid. When this E. coli strain is grown in the presence of lactose and glucose, we should expect that the lac operon will be:   Question 14 options:   Constitutively expressed due to LacI being expressed from a plasmid   Induced due to functional Catabolite Activator Protein (CAP)   Repressed due to functional LacI   Induced due to non-functional LacI   Expressed at low levels due to non-functional Catabolite Activator Protein (CAP)
