The correct Answer is:
To determine the purposes for which transgenic animals are produced, we will analyze each statement provided in the question: 1. **Statement I: To study the normal physiology and development.** - Transgenic animals can be used to understand the normal physiological processes and developmental biology by introducing specific genes that can help in studying gene function and regulation. 2. **Statement II: To study diseases.** - Transgenic animals are often used as models for human diseases. By introducing or modifying genes associated with certain diseases, researchers can study the progression and treatment of these diseases. 3. **Statement III: To obtain useful biological products.** - Transgenic animals can be engineered to produce valuable biological products such as proteins, hormones, and antibodies. For example, goats have been modified to produce milk containing therapeutic proteins. 4. **Statement IV: To test the vaccine safety.** - Transgenic animals can be utilized to evaluate the safety and efficacy of vaccines. By observing the immune response in these animals, researchers can gather important data regarding vaccine safety. 5. **Statement V: To test the chemical safety.** - Transgenic animals can also be used in toxicology studies to assess the safety of chemicals. By observing the effects of certain chemicals on these animals, researchers can determine potential risks to humans. After analyzing all the statements, we find that all five statements regarding the purposes of producing transgenic animals are correct. ### Conclusion: All the statements (I, II, III, IV, and V) are correct regarding the purposes for which transgenic animals are produced. ### Final Answer: **All the above statements are correct.**
