If a person's blood lacked platelets what process could not take place?

If a person's blood lacked platelets, the process of blood clotting (hemostasis) would be compromised. Platelets play a crucial role in forming blood clots to stop bleeding when a blood vessel is injured. Without platelets, the individual would be at risk of excessive bleeding and difficulties in wound healing.


How does blood repair cut skin?

the platelets are activated and forms fibrin mesh work so the cells are trapped only the fluid ooze out.


A major feature in many insulating materials is?

A major feature in many insulating materials is TRAPPED AIR.


What if a person's blood lacked platelets what process could not take place?

Platletes are the fractions of cells that are invilved in blood clotting to stop a heamorage. If a blood vessel is burst a zymogen (a precurser for a protien) called Fibrinogen is cleaves to form Fibrin. These Fibrin molecules are long chains that join together to form a mech over the breach in the vessel. The mesch can easily stop red blood cells being lost but much plasma is still able to freely flow away. Platelets are just the right size to get caught in the mesh and block of the gaps. More layers are formed over each other eventually makinga sheet of mech with platelets trapped in it blocking anyhting from escaping the system.

Why is fiberglass a good heat insulator?

materials such as fibreglass are good insulators because they contain pockets of trapped air. :)


When you bleed red blood cells form a scab?

Red Blood Cells (RBC) do not "form a scab", they are merely trapped in the scab during blood coagulation. Platelets, carried in the blood serum form the scab by sticking to the endothelium (inside) of the blood vessel forming a plug to end bleeding. Clotting proteins than begin to condense and form the hard scab. Human RBC do not have DNA and therefore cannot act in response to external stimuli like a cut.

What are advantages and disadvantages of vacuum oven?

Advantage: Clean burn-off and evaporation of unwanted materials Disadvantages: Difficult to handle and maintain. Materials exposed to vacuum should be vacuum compatible, e.g. no gasses should be trapped in constructions and/or materials

Hi Roseann-I'd be ha?

Hi Roseann-I'd be happy to help you with this. Platelets are part of your body's way of clotting blood and preventing bleeding. When platelets are low, your body cannot stop bleeding as effectively, which may lead to bruising, oozing from mucous membranes (for example, the gums, nose or anus), or even more severe bleeding. The lower the platelets, the higher the risk for serious bleeding.The normal range for platelets is generally considered to be between 150,000-400,000 platelets per microliter of blood. Technically, thrombocytopenia (low platelets) is diagnosed when levels fall below 150,000/microliter. However, levels slightly outside the normal range do not necessarily indicate disease. While your husband's platelet count is slightly low, it in fact may be nothing to worry about, and certainly there is no risk for serious bleeding at that level-in fact, he may not even have any symptoms at all. That being said, the platelet level should be monitored and, if persistently low, further investigation may be necessary. Anything that reduces the production of platelets or consumes/destroys them will cause thrombocytopenia. Platelets can also get trapped in a large spleen, which can occur for a variety of reasons. Medications, alcohol use, liver disease, autoimmune disease (idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, or ITP), vitamin deficiency, bone marrow disease, and kidney disease are considerations that the hematologist will make. A laboratory error is always possible as well, so a repeat platelet level will be necessary to confirm the number. Your husband likely underwent some bloodwork that will give additional information about the quality and character of his platelets and other blood cells (like red and white blood cells) as well as the basic functioning of his major internal organs like the liver and kidneys. A peripheral blood smear will be done, in which the blood is closely examined under a microscope.
