Blood clotting occurs in order to help heal some kind of wound and stop the bleeding through a process called coagulation. During this process, a number of chemical reactions occur. The last stage, or reaction, in this series of chemical reactions is the conversion of fibrinogen into fibrin.
Once in a while when you are a victim of chemical poisioning, it can cause blue rashes on your skin. They disappear after a week.
An anticoagulant stops the blood from clotting.
The healing effect of blood clotting of surface wounds comes as a result of blood chemistry and its solids. The solids themselves are cell fragments known as platelets. The clotting action is aided by plasma clotting factors.
no not really
Platelets
it is a type of protein found in blood which helps in blood clotting
Blood clotting is also known as coagulation. On average, it occurs within 3 to 6 minutes of a blood vessel being damaged. There are two main ways for blood clotting to occur: the intrinsic pathway, and the rapid extrinsic pathway. Whichever pathway occurs the final result is always that blood plasma turns into a gel as a result of being combined with fibrin, and this forms a blood clot.
Platelets help with blood clotting
The chief plasma component to the clotting of blood is the platelet. The additional components include blood clotting factors.
Red blood cells do not initiate clotting. Platelets initiate clotting.
Hemophilia
An anticoagulant stops the blood from clotting.
Plasma is the liquid component of blood. It does not cause the clotting. The part of blood that causes clotting are the platelets.
Platelets are important for blood clotting. Along with these platelets there are various blood clotting factors which helps to clot the blood.
Vitamin K is responsible for blood clotting. Or is it responsible for clotting blood? Whatever way you want to say it, it's vitamin K. :)
Hemophilia is a genetic blood clotting disorder.
it shouldn't the disease where blood stops clotting is hemophillia
There is a long chain reaction from the moment one recieves a cut to the final stage where the cut is healed. The process involves many chemical reactions. In order for the blood to produce a final clot that will stem the bleeding, the blood turns a protein called PROTHROMBIN into THROMBIN. Thrombin is an enzyme that presides over the conversion of a substance called fibrinogen to fibrin, which promotes blood clotting.
