Blood clot formation, or coagulation, begins when a blood vessel is injured, exposing underlying tissues. Platelets adhere to the injury site and activate, releasing chemicals that attract more platelets. This aggregation forms a temporary "platelet plug." Concurrently, a cascade of clotting factors is activated, leading to the conversion of fibrinogen into fibrin, which weaves through the platelet plug to stabilize and form a solid clot.

What are Blood coagulates to form a?
Clot, or scab.
What is the medical terminology Combining form meaning blood clot?
Thrombo- (Greek = "blood clot") is the word-forming element that is used meaning blood clot. thrombophlebitis: blood clot + vein + inflammation thrombocyte: blood clot + cell (aka platelet) thrombocytopenia: blood clot + cell + lacking (low platelet count)
The clear yellow liquid that remains after a blood clot form is the?
whole blood
What componet in blood makes it clot?
Platelets and clotting factors in the blood work together to form a blood clot. Platelets are small cell fragments that help in clot formation, while clotting factors are proteins that help in the coagulation process. When there is a break in a blood vessel, platelets become activated and together with the clotting factors, they form a clot to stop the bleeding.
How does your body form a blood clot?
your body use dicks to spread it out
What stops red cells escaping from a cut?
Platelets, which are small cell fragments in the blood, help to form a clot by sticking to the site of injury and releasing chemical signals that attract other platelets and help activate proteins in the blood to form a fibrin mesh. This mesh traps red blood cells and other components to form a stable clot, preventing further blood loss.
During clot formation the insoluable blood protein which forms a fibrous mesh network is?
During clot formation, the insoluble blood protein that forms a fibrous mesh network is fibrin. This network traps blood cells and platelets to form a stable blood clot at the site of injury.
What is a blood clot that is traveling?
An embolus is a wandering blood clot.
What forms blood clot?
its blood that's got alot of clot
True or false The blood platelets help to stop bleedng and form a blood clot?
True. Blood platelets are essential in the process of coagulation, where they help stop bleeding by forming a blood clot at the site of injury.
What substance must be present at all times in the blood for the blood to clot properly?
Platelets must be present in the blood for proper clotting to occur. They adhere to the site of injury and release chemicals that help form a blood clot.
What are those blood cells called which stick together to form clot?
Platelets
