Hemoglobin is not a living thing. Hemoglobin is simply a molecule capable of temporarily binding with oxygen and carrying that oxygen to where it is needed, then giving it up and returning to be reoxygenated. Hemoglobin is present in red blood cells, but does not metabolize, neither does it generate nor utilize energy itself, generally considered parameters that define 'living'.

What performs the same job as the nucleus?
An analogy of a nucleus is that it is like a brain. It controls the rest of the body and what goes on mostly. Without it, you body would get confused and then you would die. (the cell would die.) This nucleus houses the DNA, like your brain carries special information on how to do things. Just like DNA does. Also, without DNA, you wouldn't be able to live either.

Possibly because the gene of a plant or animal is in the nucleus and the country would display how the people that live there are by having a, metaphorically speaking, genetic structure for how people live and act in this region but also that the nucleus is the brains of a cell, makes the decisions etc. this is wat the government does for a country
