Platelets are involved in blood clotting. They are also called thrombocytes and come from the bone marrow.
The center of many bones (mostly long bones) contains either/or red marrow or yellow marrow. Red marrow is a place where red blood cells (RBCs), white blood cells (WBCs) and platelets (fragments that are important in clotting) are found. RBCs have to be replaced every 120 days. The yellow marrow is a storage place for fat.

THat is just how our body works. The red marrow produces blood cells and clotting factors and the yellow marrow is stores fat, these marrows are important parts of our circulatory system
Platelets are produced in the bone marrow by large cells called megakaryocytes.
