The piano could only be played with 12 fingers, which is rare because humans normally have ten fingers.
With the sequence of the gene-coding regions of the human genome in hand and the development of newer sequencing methods, scientists are able to
1. develop new forensic tests that can help in the identification of the convict.
2. diagnose genetic diseases before their onset.
3. develop customised medicines based on the genetic profile of the patient.
4. therapeutically target the cancer causing genes (oncogenes) in the patients.
5. understand the inheritance of genes especially the rare mutations in a population.
Answer:
4. Membrane and proteins secreted by the cell
Explanation:
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is one of the organelle that makes up the endomembrane system of eukaryotes. The ER is of two types viz: rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) and smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER).
The RER is called "rough" because of the ribosome organelles that are attached to its surface. The attachment of this ribosomes (site of protein synthesis) also defines its function. The RER is principally involved in the production of protein. Hence, the Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum functions mainly in the production of membrane and proteins secreted by the cell.
