The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Hemophilia**: - Hemophilia is a genetic disorder that affects the blood's ability to clot, leading to excessive bleeding. It is primarily caused by deficiencies in specific clotting factors. 2. **Types of Hemophilia**: - There are two main types of hemophilia: - **Hemophilia A**: Caused by a deficiency in clotting factor VIII (factor 8). - **Hemophilia B**: Caused by a deficiency in clotting factor IX (factor 9). 3. **Identifying the Transgenic Product**: - The question asks for a transgenic product that is useful for treating hemophilia. - Among the options provided: - **Factor 8**: This is the clotting factor that is deficient in Hemophilia A. - **Antithrombin**: A plasma cofactor, not directly related to hemophilia. - **Alpha 1 Antitrypsin**: Protects body tissues from infection, not related to hemophilia treatment. - **Lysostaphin**: An enzyme active against bacteria, not related to hemophilia. 4. **Conclusion**: - Since Hemophilia A is treated with factor 8, the correct answer is **Factor 8**.
