What is the difference between blood clot and scab?

A blood clot is a gel-like mass formed by platelets and fibrin in response to injury to prevent excessive bleeding. It forms inside the blood vessels. A scab, on the other hand, is a crust that forms over a wound when the blood clot dries out and hardens on the skin's surface. It is made up of dried blood, platelets, and other debris from the wound. Blood clots are internal, while scabs are external manifestations of the healing process.

One way skin injuries heal is by blocking an opening with platelets from the blood. When you get cut, a bunch of platelets rush to the area and start forming a clot with fibrin.

Also the scab is just a quick fix the real repairs begin after the scab is formed and the repairs occur under the scab.when the repairs are completed the scab starts to fall off.
