प्रश्न
Explain the process of blood clotting.
उत्तर
Blood clotting is also known as blood coagulation. It is a process in which the Liquid blood changes into a semi-solid form known as a clot.
The process of blood clotting prevents the excessive loss of blood.
The process of blood clotting occurs in a series of following steps:
- The injured tissue cells and the platelets (thrombocytes) release thromboplastin.
- Thromboplastin helps in the formation of the enzyme prothrombinase in the presence of Ca2+ ions.
- Prothombinose inactivates heparin (anticoagulant) and also converts inactive prothrombin into active thrombin.
- Thrombin converts soluble fibrinogen into insoluble fibrin in the presence of Ca2+ ions.
- Fibrin forms a mesh or network in which platelets (thrombocytes) and other blood cells get trapped to form the clot.
