Platelets travel through the bloodstream, where they circulate as part of the blood plasma. They are produced in the bone marrow and released into the circulatory system, where they move along with red and white blood cells. When a blood vessel is injured, platelets quickly adhere to the site of injury and aggregate to form a clot, helping to stop bleeding. Their ability to travel efficiently is crucial for maintaining hemostasis throughout the body.
