I am unsure how involved you want to get. The following is a very simple diagram of how blood clots.
Please let me know if you are looking for something more complex, i.e. what happens to get to the Prothrombin—Thrombin phase as shown in this diagram. “Clotting factors” are found in what are called the intrinsic and extrinsic coagulation cascade and they must function in a specific order to get to the Prothrombin—Thrombin phase as shown above.

- Coagulation, also known as clotting, is the process by which blood changes from a liquid to a gel, forming a blood clot.The mechanism of coagulation involves activation, adhesion and aggregation of platelets, as well as deposition and maturation of fibrin.
