  • (Easy) Platelets to help with blood clot to prevent bacterial form entering the wound.
  • (Difficult) When the tissue is damaged, platelets and these tissue release an enzyme called Thrombokinase. Prothrombin (inactive form) is converted to Thrombin (active form) under the presence of Thrombokinase and Calcium Ions. These Thrombin catalyzes the conversion of soluble fibrinogen to insoluble fibrin threads. Fibrin threads will trap the red blood cell passing by and a mass forms a clot.
