Heparin is a naturally-occurring anticoagulant produced by basophils and mast cells. Heparin acts as an anticoagulant, preventing the formation of clots and extension of existing clots within the blood. Heparin is present in the walls of blood vessels where it doesn’t allow blood to clot.

Antigens are defined as substances recognized by the body as foreign, causing the body to produce an antibody to react specifically with it. Antibodies are proteins produced by lymphocytes as a result of stimulation by an antigen which can then interact specifically with that particular antigen.

Hemoglobin is the iron-containing oxygen-transport metalloprotein in the red blood cells of all vertebrates. Similarly, Cytochromes are, in general, membranebound hemeproteins containing heme groups and are primarily responsible for the generation of ATP via electron transport.

Water potential is the potential energy of water per unit volume relative to pure water in reference conditions. Water potential quantifies the tendency of water to move from one area to another due to osmosis, gravity, mechanical pressure, or matrix effects such as surface tension. Water potential is typically expressed in potential energy per unit volume and very often is represented by the Greek letter

Like all other insects, in a mosquito, the thorax is specialized for locomotion. Three pairs of legs and a pair of wings are attached to the thorax. The insect wing is an outgrowth of the exoskeleton.
