Best answer
The correct option is (a) Growth on solid media

Easy explanation: IRR1 gene is responsible for the growth or formation of colonies on solid media but it has no role to play on growth in liquid culture. It is neither responsible for the release of the enzyme nor the synthesis of proteins.
