Platelets contain clotting factors that cause them to stick together, which stops bleeding from an opened blood vessel by solidifying the blood (hemostasis). Platelets also carry the growth factors (PDGF) that stimulate the growth of new blood vessels, which is called angiogenesis.
The second type of blood cell is called a platelet. Whenever you are cut or have a break in your skin, platelets have the important job of traveling to the area and forming a clot or scab to stop the bleeding. Platelets also prevent you from bleeding even when you are not cut. They prevent blood from leaking out of the very tiny vessels in your body called capillaries.

The main function of platelets in the human body is to prevent bleeding. A human has an average of 150,000 to 350,000 platelets in each microliter of blood.
They aggregate and release substances important for the clotting of blood. They are important in hemostasis, wound - healing etc.
The job of platelets are to clot our blood when we cut ourselves so that we don't bleed to death.
Platelets stop you from bleeding, when you cut yourself, you bleed right? o.O So the platelets arrive and do their job by blocking the cut and u end up with a scab :)
platelets help clot your blood if you get a cut. so when you get a scab platelets were what caused your cut to stop bleeding, forming a scab! :D
They're job is to clot together when blood is leaking out of the body to stop the bleeding.
Platelets help the body to protect wounds by creating a scab
it depends on how many platelets you have in your body.
Platelets by Kyrie Irving
An animal has platelets because when they get a wound the platelets rush to the area and they release fibres that stop the blood from escaping the body.
Blood platelets are a type of blood cell. Their main job is in clotting.
The platelets count of the sick person was very low. It means the count of protective cells in the body.

I think that it helps heal a scab.
Platelets form a clot at the site of a cut.
If your talking about blood platelets, they rush to an area of you body that is injured to begin the clotting process.
it can inhibit the release of platelets in your body...but im not sure if you could or not donate
