Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Control cells on LB agar with ampicillin should not show any growth. Ampicillin is an antibiotic that inhibits the growth of bacteria, so if the cells are sensitive to ampicillin, they will not be able to grow on the agar containing this antibiotic. Therefore, the statement is true.
