Solution

The correct option is A 2.4 grams/lit
Alpha-lactalbumin is a major milk whey protein. It is involved in the process of lactose synthesis. The first transgenic cow was produced with human alpha-lactalbumin gene introduced into it. The milk of transgenic cow contained about 2.4 grams/lit of human protein.
Thus, the correct answer is '2.4 grams/lit.'
