How do ampicillin resistant E. coli combat the lethal effects of the ampicillin antibiotic?

The pGlo plasmid contains an ampicillin resistance gene. This gene encodes an enzyme, β lactimase, which enzymatically degrades ampicillin. Therefore, bacteria that take up the plasmid (transformants) become resistant to ampicillin.

Why do the cells transformed with pUC18 and plasmid lux grow in the presence of ampicillin?

The pUC18 plasmid contains the ampicillin resistance gene (ampR) which confers resistance to ampicillin. The Lux operon on the plasmid allows for bioluminescence production and acts as a reporter gene. Therefore, transformed cells that harbor both plasmids can grow in the presence of ampicillin due to pUC18 and express bioluminescence due to the Lux operon.
