James is working with the lac operon of Escherichia coli (E. coli). He places the bacteria on a plate of growth media. The lac Operon of E. coli is shown.

Based on the current understanding of this operon, which hypothesis would be useful for James to test?
Addition of allolactose to the bacterial growth media should increase the speed at which the bacteria metabolize the sugar lactose.
Removal of the RNA polymerase molecule should increase the amount of bacterial growth on the plate.
Decreasing the amount of allolactose in the bacterial growth media should increase the rate of bacterial growth.
Increasing the rate at which RNA polymerase acts will inhibit bacterial growth.

Which statements about the fluid mosaic structure of a membrane are correct? select the three correct statements. which statements about the fluid mosaic structure of a membrane are correct? select the three correct statements. the framework of a membrane is a bilayer of phospholipids with their hydrophilic heads facing the aqueous environment inside and outside of the cell and their hydrophobic tails clustered in the center. because membranes are fluid, membrane proteins and phospholipids can drift about in the membrane. the diverse proteins found in and attached to membranes perform many important functions. the kinky tails of some proteins keep the membrane fluid by preventing the component molecules from packing solidly together. membranes include a mosaic, or mix, of carbohydrates embedded in a phospholipid bilayer.
