Transgenic animals are the animals in which a foreign gene is expressed. Such animals can be used to study the fundamental biological process/ phenomenon as well as for producing products useful for mankind. Give one example for each type
Study basic biological process- how gene are regulated, how they affect the normal functions of the body and its development. Transgenic cow, Rosie is the example for the second category
Gene therapy would be a better option because it has the potential to completely cure the patient. It is because the correct gene once introduced in the patient, can continue...

Transgenic animals are products of genetic engineering and express specificgene(s) from totally unrelated source. Following are the four main areas where they can be utilised
1. To study normal physiology and development these...
After identifying a useful gene in bacteria, following steps should be undertaken
(1) Isolation of useful gene using Restriction Endonucleases
↓
(2) Transferring...
Functional mRNA of structural genes need not always include all of its exons. This alternate splicing of exons is sex-specific, tissue-specific, and even developmental stage-specific. By such alternate splicing of exons, a...
