• A. Alpha-lactalbumin
• B. Thyroxine
• C. $\alpha -1$-antitrypsin
• D. Insulin.

Answer 1

The correct option is C $\alpha -1$-antitrypsin

A human protein which is obtained from transgenic animals and is used to treat emphysema is α−1-antitrypsin. Transgenic animals that produce useful biological products can be created by the introduction of the portion of DNA which codes for particular product such as human proteins.

So, the correct option is 'Option C' .
