When a culture of rodent cells is infected with a DNA tumor virus whose gene products bind to p53 and RB, all the cells take on characteristics of malignancy. If the viral gene coding the p53-binding protein is mutated, but that coding for the RB-binding protein is not mutated, how will infected cells respond?

The depicted region contains two genes (cI and cro) and three promoters (PR, PL, and PRM), these promoters are direct the transcription such as;

a) PR and PL are is a weak promoter and only directs efficient transcription when an activator is bound just upstream

b) PR and PL are strong, constitutive promoters, they bind RNA polymerase efficiently and direct transcription without     help from an activator

c) PRM, is a weak promoter and only directs efficient transcription when an activator is bound just upstream

d) PRM are strong, constitutive promoters, they bind RNA polymerase efficiently and direct transcription without help from an activator

Which of the following from the above combination is correct ?
