It's not a blood cell. It is platelets. They clot due to blood loss from damaged blood vessels
When a blood vessel is damaged, platelets stick to the site of injury and release chemicals that activate fibrin, a protein involved in clot formation. Fibrin forms a mesh that traps red blood cells, platelets, and plasma, forming a clot that stops bleeding. The red blood cells help reinforce the clot and provide stability.
Red blood cells are used to transport blood and oxygen to cells in our body while platelets clot blood when u are bleeding, to prevent excessive blood loss
yep they do. when you have a cut your white blood cells go to it and clot the blood to stop the bleeding. that's why when people have HIV which kills the cells and also lukemia if they get a cut it takes longer to stop bleeding.
Platelets, which are small cell fragments in the blood, help to form a clot by sticking to the site of injury and releasing chemical signals that attract other platelets and help activate proteins in the blood to form a fibrin mesh. This mesh traps red blood cells and other components to form a stable clot, preventing further blood loss.
When blood components called platelets are activated, they start a chain reaction that leads to the formation of fibrin. Fibrin forms a mesh that traps red blood cells and platelets to create a blood clot.
A tangled mesh of blood cells is called a blood clot.
Platelet cells are the component within blood cells that help control bleeding by helping blood to clot.
White blood cells help clot the blood. Low PH makes red blood cells clump together

The same process that creates problem blood clots leading to strokes are the same helpful processes that stops bleeding from a cut. The body sends platelets to the area. Platelets create a sticky cohesion between blood components and red blood cells. Macrophages rush to the area to begin cleaning up debris. The bleeding is stopped with the clot; healing begins. In a problem clot inside a blood vessel, the platelets' stickiness attacts more red blood cells. The blood components in the blood stream get caught against the clot, making it thicker. If the clot dislodges, it can travel to the heart or brain. Luckily, with a cut, the body reabsorbs the platelets and red blood cells that stuck together to make the clot. Soon, the clot is gone, the skin heals.
