Answer:

Explanation:

Sequencing the human genome is the function of the human genome project with the goal of determining the base pairs/order of DNA nucleotides that make up human genome, and also identifying and mapping all of the genes of the human genome both from the physical level and its functions in molecular medicine. The benefits in this field could allow for better diagnosis of disease, early detection of certain diseases, and gene therapy and control systems for drugs.

Inborn errors of metabolism are rare genetic (inherited) disorders where the body cannot properly digest and turn food into energy through the normal pathway. The disorders are usually caused by mutations in specific enzymes that help in the break down of these foods.

Through the study of the human genome, sequences involved in these mutations giving rise to these disorders are identified and mapped to their variuos locations. This can help in the early diagnosis of the disorders and effective control system for drugs and gene therapy against these disorders.

In an animal cell, what is the function of the lysosomes?
Alik [6]
<span><span><span>Release enzymes outside of the cell (exocytosis)</span>
which may serve the purpose of destroying materials around the cell.</span><span><span>Break-down 'digestion' of materials from inside the cell (autophagy)</span> 
i.e. by fusing with vacuoles from inside the cell. 
This could include digesting worn-out organelles so that useful chemicals locked-up in their structures can be re-used by the cell.</span><span><span>Break-down 'digestion' of materials from outside the cell (heterophagy)</span>
i.e. by fusing with vacuoles from outside the cell.
This could include breaking-down material taken-in by phagocytes, which include many types of white blood cells - also known as leucocytes. Specific mechanisms of heterophagy can be:<span><span>phagocytic - by which cells engulf extracellular debris, bacteria or other particles - only occurs in certain specialized cells</span><span>pinocytic - by which cells engulf extracellular fluid</span><span>endocytic - by which cells take-up particles such as molecules that have become attached to the outer-surface of the cell membrane.</span></span></span><span><span>Recycle the products of biochemical reactions that have taken place following materials being brought into the cell by endocytosis (general term for this 'recycling' function: biosynthesis) </span>
Different materials (chemicals) are processed in different ways, e.g. some structures may be processed/degraded within lysosomes and others are taken to the surface of the cell.</span><span>Completely break-down cells that have died (autolysis)</span></span>

In general, the functions of lysosomes involve breaking-down i.e. processing to 'make safe' or make use of, or removing from the cell e.g. by exocytosis, useless and potentially harmful materials such as old worn-out parts of the cell or potential threats such bacteria. Lysosomes can therefore be thought of as the rubbish disposal units within cel

Vinvika [58]
The answer is A. RNA polymerase will be making an mRNA using a single DNA strand as a template. So, for example if the DNA strand is AGGCAGC the mRNA strand will be UCCGUCG. U= uracil which replaces thymine in mRNA molecules. <span>
