The value of the unknown number is 10.5.
Let the unknown number = x
When 20 is subtracted from the number and the result is squared which is equal to the square of the unknown number minus 20:
(x - 20)² = x² - 20
<em>expand the equation;</em>
x² - 40x + 400 = x² - 20
<em>collect similar terms together;</em>
x² - x² - 40x = -20 - 400
-40x = -420

Thus, the value of the unknown number is 10.5.

Answer:
This is incorrect, The microscopic size of cells enable them to function properly
Answer:
RER is involved in protein synthesis, folding, transport and modification.
Explanation:
The Endoplasmic Reticulum is an organnelle found in eukaryotic cells. They are of two types; Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum and Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum, so named based on the appearance of their surface. The Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (RER) obtains it rough appearance from the membrane bound ribosomes attached to it.
Due to the ribosomes that attach to them during protein synthesis, their function is very much associated with protein synthesis. They are primarily involved in protein production, which would either remain in their lumen for further modification/processing called Glycosylation (adding sugar to proteins to form glycoproteins) or be transported through secretory vesicles to the Golgi apparatus. They also fold this proteins in their inner membrane structure called cisternae.
