Question
Transgenic animals are used to study normal physiology and development primarily to achieve which goal?
Options
To artificially speed up the natural development process
To replace natural organs with synthetic biological substitutes
To eliminate all disease-causing mutations from a population
To observe how genes control body functions and gene regulation

Solution
When transgenic animals are used in studying normal physiology and development, the primary goal is to observe and understand how genes control body functions and regulate biological processes. By introducing specific genes and observing their effects on the animal's development and physiology, scientists gain insights into normal gene function, regulatory mechanisms, and how specific genes contribute to overall body system functions.
