Stops red cell escaping from a cut?
Platelets in the blood recognize the cut in a blood vessel and form a temporary plug to stop the red blood cells from escaping. This process is part of the body's natural clotting mechanism to prevent excessive bleeding. Factors such as fibrinogen then help to strengthen the clot and allow the wound to heal.
What do red blood cells do to help heal a cut?
Red blood cells do not play a direct role in healing a cut. Their main function is to carry oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body and remove carbon dioxide. Platelets and other components of the blood are involved in the clotting process to stop bleeding and initiate the healing cascade.
How do platelets fibrin and red cells interact to form a blood clot?
When a blood vessel is damaged, platelets stick to the site of injury and release chemicals that activate fibrin, a protein involved in clot formation. Fibrin forms a mesh that traps red blood cells, platelets, and plasma, forming a clot that stops bleeding. The red blood cells help reinforce the clot and provide stability.
What organelles in red blood cells?
There are no cells in the red blood cell
Do bearded dragons have red blood cells?
Yes, bearded dragons have red blood cells. Reptilian red blood cells are different to mammalian red blood cells in that they have a nucleus and are oval in shape.

What is the substance that carbon monoxide stops red blood cells carrying?
Oxygen.
What is important about the cells in tissue?
the cells are inportant because if you get cut the cells ( red blood cells and white blood cells) help heal the wound.
What form at a cut in the skin to stop bleeding?
After getting a cut, thrombin and fibrinogen in the blood reacts producing fibrin. Fibrin forms a network of fibrin in the cut in which red blood cells and white cells get stuck causing coagulation.
Compare white blood cells with red blood cells?
White blood cells are part of the immune system, defending the body against infections and diseases, while red blood cells transport oxygen to tissues throughout the body. White blood cells can move independently, whereas red blood cells circulate in the blood vessels. White blood cells are less numerous than red blood cells in the bloodstream.
When your bone marrow stops its functions is it fatal?
Yes, if the bone marrow stops functioning completely, it can be fatal. The bone marrow is responsible for producing blood cells, and without a functioning bone marrow, the body cannot make enough red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets to sustain life. This condition is known as aplastic anemia.
What is the blood cells job when you have got a cut?
Depends on the type of blood cell you're talking about. Platelets are the "cells" that are responsible for forming a clot when you but yourself, whereas whiteblood cells are responsible for fighting any infection that may come in through the cut. Red blood cells are responsbile for carrying oxygen, and don't do anything in the context of a cut. They just leak ;-)
How long can red blood cells be stored?
No organ holds blood. Blood is constantly flowing through the circulatory system. It never stops (unless you are dead)
Why does a blood clot in the coronary artery prevent cells respiring normally?
Why a blood clot is the coronary artery stops the red blood cells from respiring normally

Is red blood cells the reason for the clotting of blood?
No. Platelets in the bloodstream, when you are cut, clot the blood so you don't bleed to death.
Why do you need blood in your body?
Red blood cells carry oxygen around the body. White blood cells fight germs. Platelets relieve a cut until it's healed.
