• A)The structural gene will be constitutively expressed due to the lack of negative inducible control.
• B)The transcription of the structural gene will not be affected, as a repressor is not required.
• C)The mutation will lead to activation of an activator upon the lack of a repressor protein, which will allow the transcription to continue.
• D)As the transcription will require a repressor protein, the transcription will be turned off.
• E)More cAMP will be produced in a cell to compensate for the lack of a repressor protein.
