Proteins involved in the blood clotting process form a barrier to stop the blood loose from injury. there are various blood clotting factors, thrombin, and fibrin are all involved in the biochemical cascade to make the fibrin clot at the end. They generally activated by each other from its precursor protein such as prothrombin, fibrinogen.

Does smoking effect blood clotting or make it more difficult for the blood to clot?
Yes, smoking affects blood clotting by making the blood more likely to clot. It increases the risk of getting a deep vein thrombosis. Smoking increases fibrinogen in the blood and also increase the levels of factor X111 which stabilizes the clot.
Why doesn't blood mix with water?
Blood does not mix with water because blood is thicker and more dense then water. That is why if you put both in a container the blood will sink to the bottom and the water will rise to the top.

If you are a hemophiliac (a genetic disorder) your blood will not clot. Also certain medicines such as Warfarin or Heparin will act as anticoagulants and prevent blood from clotting. People undergoing chemotherapy for cancer also have problems with blood not clotting due to a reduction in the number of platelets present in the blood.
Is it true that platelets form a sticky clot when a blood vessel is cut?
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.
