Blood is circulating throughout the entire body every minute of the day. Blood is composed of three components: red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets. Red blood cells are responsible for carrying the oxygen to the body and carbon monoxide and other wastes out of the body. A white blood cell is part of the immune system that will attack foreign particles. Lastly, the platelets are responsible for clotting. When someone has hemophilia the platelets in the blood do not react the way they should and will cause slow or no clotting of the damaged area.
