In this tutorial JPG file is given with a white backgound in window explorer.
But file separated the photo and the background. That means, in the layer panel Photo is with transperant background and layer is with white background. Is it possible to do so?

Hi @Colorful_sincerityB82A the course files should match what the tutorial shows.
But in this case, here is how to convert to match the tutorial:
- Open the jpg
- Use Select>Subject to make a selection of the car.
- Click the Layer Mask button at the bottom of the Layers Panel. This will separate the car from the white background.
- Then Right click the new layer and choose "Convert to Smart Object".
- Last click the new layer button at the bottom of the Layers Panel, go to Edit>Fill and choose White.

When you have the move tool selected, make sure you have show transform controls checked.
"Convert to Smart Object"
What is meant by Smart Object?

Yes, in your case the subject is the car. 😊
"Smart Objects are a type of container that holds multiple layers within Photoshop. Apply properties and characteristics to multiple layers, combining different tools, filters, and features. Then undo and make changes as you need to — the original image is protected."

Right-click past the name on the right, it will bring up a sub-menu that you can choose from or you can go to Layers menu>Smart Object>Convert to Smart Object.
In the tutorial when you selected car in the layer panel, it creates a bounding box around the car image and enabes resizing the car. In my file car selection in panel does not create a bounding box around the car image. How to fix it?
When you have the move tool selected, make sure you have show transform controls checked.
