platelets is cell fragments!
the function is to release proteins to help blood to clot! :)
because there is only the defects in function of platelets in hemophilia and not reduction in number of platelets!
The platelets.
Platelets help close breaks in damaged blood vessels and initiate formation of blood clots.
The function of platelets is in clotting. Without them the blood would not clot. They are cell fragments and not cells. They live only 5-9 days. Too many platelets can cause clots that then can travel and cause blockages in vessels. Too few can cause uncontrolled bleeding.
The function of the platelets is to clot blood.There for it stops blood from flowing if a body part is cut. maintainence of haemostasis.(process which causes the bleeding to stop.) platelets secrete platelet-derived growth factor(PDGF)
PlateletsPlatelets are only about 20% of the diameter of red blood cells, the most numerous cell of the blood. The normal platelet count is 150,000-350,000 per microliter of blood, but since platelets are so small, they make up just a tiny fraction of the blood volume. The principal function of platelets is to prevent bleeding.http://www.ouhsc.edu/platelets/Platelets/platelets%20intro.html
Platelets are irregularly-shaped, colorless bodies. They are present in blood. Platelets are the smallest and lightest blood cells. Their function is to form clots to stop bleeding. (THEY PREVENT BLEEDING). Their sticky surface allows them to do this.
Platelets are nuclear cells rotates the blood and get rid of blood clots.they release protein , and close up the tear in the blood vessels..
Megakaryocytes form Thrombocytes ( platelets) which function in the formation of blood clotting
Platelets are net fibers that cover wounds and stop the external bleeding and helping it heal
red cells, white cells, platelets, and plasma
white blood sells patch up wounds such as cuts red blood cells carry oxygen platelets stop your cut from bleeding
