Explanation:
The question says that the person got a cut on her arm. The cut on the arm causes the damage to the blood vessels and may cause bleeding.
In this case, the blood needs to be clotted. The clotting of the blood is carried out by the platelets. Hence, the platelets would be functioning in higher amount than the normal.
Also, the cuts expose the inner layer of the skin, which is not protected for infections. Hence, the exposed skin is prone to infection. In this case, the white blood cells become active to prevent the infection process.
