Answer:

Red blood cells

Step-by-step explanation:

Red blood cells contain hemoglobin and are covered with a membrane composed of proteins and lipids. Hemoglobin—an iron-rich protein that gives blood its red color—enables red blood cells to transport oxygen and carbon dioxide. Red blood cells do not have nuclei, allowing for more room for hemoglobin.
