⚫Transgenic animals continue to embody one of the most potent and exciting research tools in the biological sciences.
⚪Transgenic animals represent unique models that are custom tailored to address specific biological questions. Hence, the ability to introduce functional genes into animals provides a very powerful tool for dissecting complex biological processes and systems. Gene transfer is of particular value in those animal species, where long life cycles reduce the value of classical breeding practices for rapid genetic modification. The third edition of

Answer....
1. to study normal physiology and development. for example study of complex factors involved in growth such as insulin-like growth factors.
2 . study of diseases transgenic animals can be used in understanding how genes contribute to the development of disease such as cancer, rheumatoid arthritis , etc.
3. in extraction of biological products like protein α -1- antitrypsin.
4. testing the safety of vaccines. transgenic mice are being used today to test the safety of vaccines before they are used on humans
5. testing of safety of chemicals . this is also known as toxicity testing.
