The person has no ability to clot their blood. Bleeding from even a minor injury could be very serious. The person may have a genetic abnormality to the clotting factors in the blood.
The person would need protected from or to protect against even minor injuries.
Needle punctures from routine hospital procedures could bleed more and blood longer.
Special measures needed before and during surgeries; elective surgeries postponed.
No use of razors.
Take care around sharp knives.
Wear shoes at all times when up.
Avoid risky activities-- example, hunting and gutting a kill.
That if injured, the person's body will have a difficult time stopping the bleeding on its own.
no clotting power
i am the clotting power
Platelets
Platelets contain many mitochondria to power their actions (mainly blood clotting) and granules that contain chemicals that the platelets use for their actions. They don't have much else.
they just constitute of nerves and tissues. by mahima
Only Red Blood Cells (RBCs) contain hemoglobin. The white cells do not and the platelets (fragments of cells) do not.
No, platelets do not have a nucleus. They're known as anucleur cells.
Blood plasma contains platelets, RBC and WBC cells in them. the answer to your question is yes. plasma is the component of blood obtained after removing all the blood corpuscles like RBC,WBC and platelets so it doesnt contain platelets but there are substances called platelet rich plasma where the plasma is enriched with platelets for specific purposes
Platelet StructurePlatelets are actually not true cells but merely circulating fragments of cells. But even though platelets are merely cell fragments, they contain many structures that are critical to stop bleeding. They contain proteins on their surface that allow them to stick to breaks in the blood vessel wall and also to stick to each other. They contain granules that can secrete other proteins required for creating a firm plug to seal blood vessel breaks. Also platelets contain proteins similar to muscle proteins that allow them to change shape when they become sticky.
platelets.
Blood platelets help blood clot.
It's not a blood cell. It is platelets. They clot due to blood loss from damaged blood vessels
circulatory system is; blood (plasma, platelets, red blood cells and white blood cells), veins and arteries..if i remember correctly :S
