Coagulation is the final phase of hemostasis, which is the process that prevents and stops bleeding. It involves a complex cascade of biochemical reactions leading to the transformation of fibrinogen into fibrin, forming a stable blood clot. This clot serves to seal the injury in the blood vessel, allowing for tissue repair and restoration of normal blood flow. Hemostasis occurs in three main stages: vascular spasm, platelet plug formation, and finally coagulation.
Hemostasis
the three steps of hemostasis are :- (1) vasoconstrictiion (2) blood platelet plug formation (3) coagulation of blood
coagulation, or the formation of a blood clot,which turns into scab if it is on the outside of the body.
Vasoconstriction, platelet plug formation and clotting of blood.
No, vascular relaxation is not part of hemostasis. Hemostasis refers to the series of steps that stop bleeding, including vasoconstriction, platelet plug formation, and coagulation. Vascular relaxation typically involves the widening of blood vessels, which is not directly related to hemostasis.
Primary hemostasis is the overall sequence of events that leads to the formation of a platelet plug, while Secondary hemostasis is the signal transduction pathway that leads to the formation of fibrin. Secondary Hemostasis is always a part of Primary hemostasis, but involves many clotting factors and other signaling molecules that are specific to the formation of fibrin

The four stages of hemostasis are vasoconstriction, formation of a platelet plug, blood clotting (coagulation), and clot retraction. These stages work together to stop bleeding when a blood vessel is injured.
When blood stops flowing it is usually called coagulation. In medical terms it is called a platelet plug.
coagulation would proceed more slowly
what is blood coagulation?
Hemostasis is when the blood is outside the body by way of an injury. The vessels constrict and cause clotting to stop the bleeding.
