How do platelets fibrin and red cells interact to form a blood clot?

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.


The sticky protein threads that function in blood clotting?

A blood clot is a semisolid gelatinous mass of coagulated consisting of red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets enclosed in a fibrin network. A great variety of structural proteins are present in a blood clot, for instance haemoglobin in red blood cells, antibodies in white blood cells, and fibrin in the platelets.


Fibrin is produced when the blood components called what start a chain reaction that produces a blood clot?

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.

What are the three primary functions of platelets?

platelets help in conversion of fibrinogen, a soluble plasma protein into insoluble form fibrin. The fibrin threads entangle with red blood cells and other platelets in the are of damaged tissue, ultimately forming a blood clot. When fibrinogen is transformed into fibrin and its fibires separate the underlying matter is called serum.
