Answer:
Here’s how the process works:
- Injury
A small tear in a blood vessel wall (for example, from a cut on the skin or an internal injury) causes bleeding.
- Vessel constriction
To control blood loss the blood vessel narrows (called constriction), thus limiting blood flow through the vessel.
- Platelet plug
In response to the injury, tiny cells in the blood called platelets are activated. The platelets stick to one another and to the wound site to form a plug. The protein von Willebrand factor (VWF) helps the platelets stick to each other and to the blood vessel wall.
- Fibrin clot
Next, clotting factor proteins trigger production of fibrin, a strong, strand-like substance that forms a fibrin clot, a mesh-like net that keeps the plug firm and stable. Over the next several days to weeks, the clot strengthens and then dissolves as the wounded blood vessel wall heals.
