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.

Polygon ABCDE has the vertices A(2, 8).
Elden [556K]

Answer:

A transformation or sequence of transformations that can be performed on polygon ABCDE to show that it is congruent to polygon MNOPQ is a:

Reflect across the y-axis

Explanation:

please, see the attached graph.

The polygon ABCDE is on the right side, first (I) quadrant.

The polygon MNOPQ is on the left side, second (ll) quadrant.

We can see that the polygon MNOPQ is a reflection of the polygon ABCDE across the y-axis ( only the abscissas change their signs from positive to negative).

The functioning of enhancers is an example of
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

b. transcriptional control of gene expression.

Explanation:

The binding sites of transcription factors (enhancers and silencers) can activate or deactivate, respectively, a gene in specific parts of the body.

Some genes must be expressed in a part of the body. For example, if you need to activate a gene in the spine, skull and toes, but not in the rest of the body, how can transcription factors do this task?

As a gene of this type of pattern it can have several enhancers or silencers, where each one can activate or repress the gene of a specific type of cell or part of the body, joining transcription factors that occur in that specific part of the body.

What is a special type of motor designed to operate with the rotor stalled without damage to the motor?
pochemuha

Answer:

Torque motor

Explanation:

  • A special type of motor that is designed to operate even when the rotor is stalled is called a torque motor and it does not incur any damage while doing so.
  • These motors have a toroidal construction and are induction motors.
  • They have a wide diameter which allows them to have a higher torque and thus, this improves their thermal performance and this enables the motor to keep working even when it is stalled as it can draw high currents.
  • Further, these motors are usually present without brushes or commutators due to which they can operate at higher speeds.
  • A torque motor is most commonly found in tape recorders, computer games, throttle controls and actuators.
