Bacteriophage λ, has two mode of life cycle;  lytic and lysogenic.  In the lytic growth

a) a single Cro dimer is bound to OR3; this site overlaps PRM and so Cro represses that promoter

b) Repressor bound at OR1 and OR2 blocks RNA polymerase binding at PR, repressing transcription from that promoter

c) PR and PL binds RNA polymerase and directs transcription of lytic genes

d) During lytic, PRM is on while PR (and PL) are off

Find the correct combinations of lytic growth.

You are studying a new strain of E. coli that can utilize the disaccharide melibiose very efficiently. You find that utilization depends on the enzyme melibiase, which is encoded by the gene Mel1. Mel1 is not expressed unless melibiose is present in the growth medium. You have isolated a mutation that causes constitutive melibiase activity, which you designate MelA–. P1 phage mapping experiments using a Tn5 insertion linked to Mel1 show that MelA– is not linked to Mel1. Moreover you find that when an amber suppressor is introduced into a MelA– mutant, normal melibiase regulation is restored. Classify the MelA– mutation on the basis of genetic properties,  make a proposal for the type of regulatory functions affected by the MelA– mutation?
