Now that the human genome has been sequenced, all of the following are research goals, in the near future, except:
A
Identification of all the genes in the human genome
B
Determination of the functions of human genes
C
Cloning humans
D
Understanding human gene regulation
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -For the amplification of separated fragments in the process, these are attached to the vectors like BAC(bacterial artificial chromosome and YAC(yeast artificial chromosome) and cloned inside the host bacteria or yeast. Hence, the correct answer is BAC and YAC.

Detailed explanation-2: -Yeast artificial chromosome are used as vectors to clone DNA fragments of more than 1 mega base (1Mb=1000kb) in size. They are useful in cloning larger DNA fragments as required in mapping genomes such as in the Human Genome Project.
