When the body is cut, platelets and white blood cells move to the area of the cut. The white blood cells fight infection by producing antibodies that can join with any bacteria that has entered the site. The antibodies will bind to the bacteria and cause them to clump, and other white blood cells will break down this mass. Platelets in the blood help to clot the wound so that it can heal
