When blood oozes out of a cut, it sets into gel within a few minutes.This is called coagulation.

The clot seals the wound in the vessel to stop the bleeding.

The straw coloured fluid after clotting is called serum.

The serum is similar to the plasma of the blood but it does not contain clotting factors like fibrinogen

Answer:

When there is an injury in the body, the injured tissue cells and platelets release thromboplastin (or thrombokinase). The inactive prothrombin then is converted into active thrombin by the calcium () ions. The activated thrombin now  converts the soluble fibrinogen in the blood to insoluble fibrin. The fibrin and the erythrocytes (red blood cells ) then form a clot on the injured part.
