(C) The $amp^R$ gene stands for the ampicillin-resistance gene. When a recombinant $DNA$ $(r-DNA)$ molecule containing this gene is introduced into normal $E. coli$ cells,the cells acquire the ability to survive in the presence of the antibiotic ampicillin. This process is known as transformation,and the resulting cells are referred to as ampicillin-resistant cells. Therefore,the correct option is $C$.
