Scientists hypothesized that e. coli contained one operon. after further experimentation, they discovered that, in fact, e. coli contained two operons. using this information, answer the questions provided what is one way scientists are able to study operons in organisms? a. by studying the number and organization of operons by reading the genome sequence b. by counting the operons during cell division c. by studying the operon controls during translation when proteins are constructed

The answer is A. One way for scientists to gather information about operons in organisms is by examining the genome sequence, such as by making use of the intergenic distance between frames to count the number of operons there is in the genome.

you didn't give any options but heres what i can tell you: an inference is likely to change based on additional observations. the latter is something that you have seen or sensed using your sensory organs while the former is like a conclusion out from what you have observed.
