Two major factors:
Platelets ... fragments of white cells that stick to each other AND trap plasma proteins.
An entire series of plasma proteins that polimerize when triggered. Each step must work in order to form a good clot.
The initial trigger for both is the loss of electrical charge on the endothelium of blood vessels (normal result of damage to those vessels).

What is Antiphospholipid syndrome?
A disorder of coagulation, which causes blood clots (thrombosis) in both arteries and veins
What factor 7?
Factor VII is one of the proteinsthat causes blood to clot in the coagulation cascade.
The number one toxin that causes coagulation problems?
Snake venom is a common toxin that can cause coagulation problems, leading to abnormal blood clotting and potentially causing serious health issues such as internal bleeding or stroke.
What is the humoral coagulation system?
The humoral coagulation system refers to the protein coagulation factor component.
When you cut your finger what causes you to stop bleeding?
Fibrin is a compound in the body responsible for coagulation process, thereby helping to stop the bleeding.
What is the significance of coagulation?
Coagulation is a process where solids begin to form, in a liquid. Like when your cut begins to scab over, that is coagulation.
