1. Corpuscles
2. Fibrin Thread
3. Serum

Calcium is the mineral component that is crucial for the coagulation of blood. This is because, all the phases im the clotting process require Ca²+ ion which is present in the blood.
(iii)
Anticoagulants, commonly known as blood thinners, are chemical substances that prevent or reduce coagulation of blood, prolonging the clotting time.
(iv)
A. 1) When the blood flows out from injuries, the platelets release an enzyme called thrombokinase.
2) Thrombokinase acts on another substance present in the blood called prothrombin
converting it into thrombin. •
3) Thrombin acts on another substance called fibrin, that is present in dissolved state converting it into insoluble fibrin.
4) The blood cells entangle in the fibrin fibers forming the clot.
5) The fibrin fibers are attached to the edges of the wound and pull them together.
