Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The molecules that bind to a repressor and cause it to no longer bind to the operator are called inducers. Inducers are specific molecules that bind to the repressor protein and change its shape, preventing it from binding to the operator region. This allows RNA polymerase to transcribe the genes that are regulated by the repressor. Therefore, the correct answer is option D- inducers.
