Which statement does NOT explain why the lac operon would not be effectively regulated by an attenuation mechanism like the trp operon? 1.Lactose is a substrate for the lac operon protein products.   2.Products of lac operon enzymes are not used in protein synthesis.   3.Transcription and translation do not happen simultaneously for the lac operon.   4.Attenuation is a suitable regulatory mechanism for anabolic amino acid pathways.   5.All of these statements explain why regulation by attenuation would not be effective for the lac operon.
