The correct answer is:
Statements b and d
First transgenic cow was named Rosie that produced milk with human alpha-lactalbumin. It was per litre. Restriction enzymes are used to cut DNA at specific sequences. Downstream processing is an important step in biotechnology. It includes collection and purification of materials. The pathogens to be used in transfer of DNA should be unarmed or disarmed which means it should not be able to cause any disease.
