Explanation:

Lac operon is a type of bacterial operon, characterized a cluster of genes regulated by a single promoter. It is usually contains an operator, promoter, a terminator, and three structural genes (lacA, lacY, and lacZ), which are responsible for lactose metabolism.

The lac operon is an inducible operon because it becomes activated in the presence of lactose.
