It doesn't make blood - its a component of blood (plasma). It is polymerized by thrombin to form fibrin, a major component in blood clots.
A plasma protein called fibrinogen
Plasma is the liquid portion of blood. Plasma without fibrinogen is called serum.
Fibrinogen is important for the blood coagulation.
blood serum is blood plasma without the fibrinogen or blood clotting factors
fibrinogen to fibrin.
When blood clotting is activated, fibrinogen (a protein of the blood plasma) circulating in the blood is converted to fibrin, which in turn helps to form a stable blood clot at the site of vascular disruption.
the yellow liquid portion of whole blood containing fibrinogen is known as?
Prothrombin-->Thrombin; Fibrinogen--> Fibrin (activated by thrombin)The sequence of blood clotting is called Coagulation.
Fibrinogen
Fibrinogen is a plasma protein and functions in blood coagulation.Fibrin are threads of protein that provide the backbone for a blood clot.
If u are asking about the type of blood then it is of four types: A,B,O and AB with rhesus factor positive or negative. If ur aim is to know about the 2 products of blood that we use in laboratory analysis then they are called as serum(without fibrinogen) and plasma(with fibrinogen)
