Question

Describe how platelets function

Answer 1

Platelets are tiny blood cells that help your body form clots to stop bleeding.

Step-by-step explanation:

If one of your blood vessels gets damaged, it sends out signals to the platelets. The platelets then rush to the site of damage and form a plug (clot) to fix the damage.

Answer 2

`\huge{\mathbb{\tt {ANSWER↓}}}`

• Platelets are only about 20% of the diameter of red blood cells. The normal platelet count is 150,000-350,000 per microliter of blood, but since platelets are so small, they make up just a tiny fraction of the blood volume. The principal function of platelets is to prevent bleeding.
