Clotting begins when a?
blood vessel is torn.
What is the medical term meaning stationary clot in an unbroken vessel?
thrombosisThrombus.a blood clotA blood clot that is attached to a vessel wall is a thrombus, A drifting blood clot is an embolus
What helps seal a cut in a blood vessel?
Handy dandy PLATELETS :p Scientifically called Thrombocytes.
What cells are responible for clotting?
Platelets, also called thrombocytes, are responsible for blood clotting. When a blood vessel is damaged, platelets become activated and form a plug at the site of injury to stop bleeding. They also release chemicals to help in the clotting process.
Clotting begins when a what occurs in a blood vessel wall?
break
What are the particles that help the clotting process?
Platelets, fibrinogen, and other clotting factors are the particles that help in the clotting process. When a blood vessel is injured, platelets stick together to form a plug at the site of injury, while fibrinogen and clotting factors work together to form a stable blood clot.
What cells are necessary for vessel repair and clotting?
These cells are called platelets. A normal count will assist in clotting cuts in the skin or tissue, a high count may cause blood clots elsewhere in the body and a low count can cause a cut to not clot, causing the victim to loose to much blood.
What is a single-masted sailing vessel called?
A single-masted sailing vessel is called a 'sloop-rigged' vessel.
What organ or cell associated with blood clotting?
Platelets are cell fragments found in the blood that play a crucial role in blood clotting. They are activated when there is an injury to a blood vessel, and they help form a plug to stop bleeding.
Does plasma contain clotting factors?
fibrinogen is one of the plasma proteins and it has the main role in the clotting process as it is converted by the effect of thrombin ( active enzyme ) into fibrin that accumulates forming a network that block the injured blood vessel
Elements that play a part in blood clotting include platyelets?
Platelets are small cell fragments that play a crucial role in blood clotting by forming a plug at the site of injury. They release chemicals that activate clotting factors and help seal off the damaged blood vessel to prevent excessive bleeding. Platelets work together with other components of the blood clotting cascade, such as clotting factors, to form a stable blood clot.
Blood cell required for the clotting process?
The healing effect of blood clotting of surface wounds comes as a result of blood chemistry and its solids. The solids themselves are cell fragments known as platelets. The clotting action is aided by plasma clotting factors.
