Whenever there is no glucose and there is presence of lactose..then the lac operon is activated and breaks down lactose to release energy. Operon is nothing but a group of genes which code for proteins or enzymes required for a particular function.
so operator promoter or structural genes? @BioEpic
As in...? the lac operon is a collection of genes that codes for enzymes that degrade lactose when there are low levels of glucose.
