When a blood vessel is cut, blood escapes from it. But soon a clot is formed on the wound and the flow of the blood is stopped.. Which is called clotting or coagulation
Clotting occur in series of steps as follows
1>> The injured tissue cells and platelets which disintegrate at the site of the wound release a substance thrombokinase
2>> The thrombokinase acts as an enzyme and with the help of calcium ions present in the plasma, it converts a substance prothrombin of plasma into thrombin
3>> Thrombin in the presence of calcium ions, reacts with the soluble fibrinogen of plasma to convert it into insoluble fibrin. Fibrin is a solid substance that forms threads. These microscopic threads of fibrin are sticky and form a network at the wound
4>> Blood cells are trapped in the network of the fibrin ; the network then shrinks and squeezes out the rest of the plasma which is in the form of a clear liquid, the serum. The solid mass which is left behind is called clot
Hope it will help you

Blood coagulation is also known as blood clotting. It is the process in which blood changes from the liquid state to the semi-solid state, to form a clot to prevent the excessive loss of blood from the broken blood cells. This results in homeostasis, stopping of blood loss, and lastly the repair.
