Gene regulation governing lactose operon...

Gene regulation governing lactose operon of E. coli that involves the lac I gene product is

A

negative and inducible because repressor protein prevents transcription

B

negative and repressible because repressor protein prevents transcription

C

feedback inhibition because excess of `beta`-galactosidase can swtich off transcription

D

positive and inducible because it can be induced by lactose
