Explanation

These proteins transport specific substances from one part of body to the others. Most familiar is haemoglobin of red blood cells (erythrocytes or RBCs) of vertebrates. It transports oxygen from lungs to all tissues of the body. Likewise, lipo-proteins transport lipids in blood from liver to fatty tissues (fat deposits) and other tissues. Serum albumin transports fatty acids in blood from fatty tissues to other tissues.
