Milk of transgenic 'Cow Rosie' was nutritionally more balanced product for human babies than natural cow milk because it contained:
  1. Human protein $\alpha$-1-antitrypsin
  2. Human alpha-lactalbumin
  3. Human insulin-like growth factor
  4. Human enzyme Adenosine Deaminase (ADA)

Solution

Transgenic cow Rosie produced milk rich in Human protein $\alpha$-Lactalbumin which is easily digestible to babies with lactose intolerance. $\rightarrow$ Such proteins which are produced in other organisms through DNA recombinant technology are called recombinant proteins.
