I assume you are not familiar with this topic. I suggest you read more about this protein from online books or ur own book if you have. 
White blood cell = its a cell just like the name suggests, in fact, more like its a family of cell types that are responsible for immunity and some other functions (it doesnt look like you need to know the details on other functions so just stick with immunity) 
Platelets = these are not really cells, but you can say they are sorta like bits of cells, they contain important protein(s) for blood clotting and surely they themselves play important role in blood clotting which prevents us from bleeding to death when we get a cut for example. 
Plasma = this is part of blood, excluding red blood cells and white blood cells, its basically fluid with nutrients, ions and most importantly blood proteins, such as carrier ones like Albumin. 

The only one left is Hemoglobin,
heme is the iron part (which is not really iron alone but thats the only one u need to know) 
and globin is the protein part 
these two make up hemoglobin 
so this complex resides inside red blood cells, which flow in our vessels to every part of our body supplying them with nutrients and oxygen taken from our capillary system of lungs.

Answer:

A veces tenemos los nombres de algunos lugares, con nombres de accidentes geográficos y un nombre propio, escritos enteramente en mayúsculas; sin embargo, está mal. De acuerdo con nuestras reglas de ortografía, los sustantivos comunes utilizados en un nombre propio no deben escribirse con mayúscula. Así deberíamos escribir: "Mar Muerto", "Montaña de los Totales", "cordillera de los Andes".

Explanation:

Es importante notar que no se deben usar artículos entre nombres comunes y propios. Sin embargo, si el nombre del lugar precede a un artículo, debe ser un título. Entonces tenemos que escribir "La Habana". Para mayor claridad, aquí hay un ejemplo:

You wish to determine the concentration of bacteria in a liquid sample. You measure the concentration by direct microscopic obse
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

The correct answer to the question above is "PLATE COUNT TECHNIQUE"

Explanation:

DIRECT MICROSCOPIC OBSERVATION is the method of estimating the number of microorganism using microscope. Samples to be estimated are placed on microscope slides which allow few cells in a small volume to be counted. Then, the value determined is used to estimate the total number of cells mathematically. It is only difficult to aee small cells which may affect precision.

VIABLE COUNT is the estimation of the living cells in a given sample.

PLATE COUNT TECHNIQUE is used to estimate the number of viable cells that are present in a given sample of actively growing or dividing cells based on bacteria cells found on agar plate. A sample to be counted is diluted in a solution that will not kill the microorganisms, this is done to enable accurate counting as only living bacteria will be counted.

Kay [80]

Answer:

<h2>Mitosis and meiosis are the ways of cell division which result daughter cells for growth, development and reproduction. </h2>

Explanation:

Mitosis and meiosis result daughter cells for growth, development and reproduction in the living world.

Mitosis results two similar daughter cells which are generally for growth and development. In asexual mode of reproduction, mitosis helps in increasing the number of cells.

Meiosis occurs in germ cells, and in meiosis, one diploid cell produce four haploid cells.

Meiosis results variations by independent assortment and by crossing over and it helps the sexual mode of reproduction. During fertilization, the resultant daughter haploid cells unite and retains the diploid number of chromosomes.

If an organism has 46 chromosomes in their somatic cells, how many chromosomes do they have in their gametes?
Alexus [3.1K]
Human somatic cells have 46 chromosomes, including 22 homologous pairs and one pair of nonhomologous sex chromosomes. This is the 2n, or diploid, condition. Human gametes have 23 chromosomes, one each of 23 unique chromosomes. This is the n, or haploid, condition.
