The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks about the target for the attachment of a repressor protein that is produced by a regulator gene. 2. **Identifying the Role of the Repressor Protein**: Repressor proteins are regulatory proteins that bind to specific sites on DNA to inhibit the expression of genes. 3. **Locating the Binding Site**: The specific site on the DNA where the repressor protein binds is known as the **operator**. 4. **Describing the Operator**: The operator is a segment of DNA that is typically located downstream of the promoter region, where RNA polymerase binds to initiate transcription. 5. **Conclusion**: Therefore, the target for the attachment of the repressor protein produced by the regulator gene is the **operator**. ### Final Answer: The target for the attachment of the repressor protein produced by the regulator gene is the **operator**. ---
