Frequently, experiments do not turn out as expected, and good scientists learn how to "troubleshoot" and test possible reasons for unexpected results. Sally's team ran this experiment but observed no colonies on the +pGLO + ampicillin + arabinose plate. List three possible reasons for this - and ways that Sally can test whether these are the cause of these experimental results.
