Why is there blood cells in blood?
Red cells (erythrocytes) are mainly there to transport oxygen to cells and carbon dioxide from them. White cells help with fighting infection. Platelets (although not really a cell, more a fragment of one - megakaryocytes) help with the primary clotting process.
Do white blood cells initiate clotting process?
No, platelets and factors in the plasma are responsible for clotting. White blood cells mediate immunity.
All your blood cells are made in?
Bloods cells arise from the bone marrow.
What cells are involved in the clotting process?
Platelets.
What are too few clotting cells called?
