Some blood-clotting disorders can be inherited. Genetic modification has been used to produce human proteins. One protein made in this way is factor VIla which is used to treat some blood clotting disorders. (i) State the names of enzyme $$\(\mathbf{A}\)$$ and enzyme $$\(\mathbf{B}\)$$ in Fig. 6.1.
