A scientist is using аn аmpicillin-sensitive strаin оf bacteria that cannоt use lactоse because it has a nonfunctional gene in the lac operon. She has two plasmids. One contains a functional copy of the affected gene of the lac operon, and the other contains the gene for ampicillin resistance. Using restrictions enzymes and DNA ligase, she forms a recombinant plasmid containing both genes. She then adds a high concentration of the plasmid to a tube of the bacteria in a medium for bacterial growth that contains glucose as the only energy source. This tube (+) and a control tube (-) with similar bacteria but no plasmid are both incubated under the appropriate conditions for growth and plasmid uptake. The scientist then spreads a sample of each bacterial culture (+ and -) on each of the three types of plates indicated below. The columns show the different media on the plates starting with glucose medium, then glucose medium with ampicillin and then glucose medium with ampicillin and lactose. The rows are bacterial strain with added plasmid, also labeled positive, and bacterial strain with no plasmid, also labeled negative. The plates are labeled number one through number six, with one, two and three with positive bacteria on the media in order, and four, five and six with negative bacteria on the media in order. Plate one is bacteria with plasmid on glucose medium. Plate two is bacteria with plasmid on glucose medium with ampicillin. Plate three is bacteria with plasmid on glucose medium with ampicillin and lactose. Plate four is bacteria without plasmid on glucose medium. Plate five is bacteria without plasmid on glucose medium with ampicillin. Plate six is bacteria without plasmid on glucose medium with ampicillin and lactose The columns are lactose medium and lactose medium with ampicillin. The rows are bacterial strain with added plasmid, also labeled positive, and bacterial strain with no plasmid, also labeled negative. The plates are labeled number seven through number ten. Plate seven is bacteria with plasmid on lactose medium. Plate eight is bacteria with plasmid on lactose medium with ampicillin. Plate nine is bacteria without plasmid on lactose medium. Plate ten is bacteria without plasmid on lactose medium with ampicillin. If the scientist used the cultures to perform another experiment as shown above, using medium that contained lactose as the only energy source, growth would most likely occur on which of the following plates?
