Which of the following blood cells is compulsory for blood coagulation ?
-
- Platelets
- Red Blood Corpuscles

Correct Option: A
Coagulation is the process by which blood forms clots. It is an important part of homeostasis, the cessation of blood loss from a damaged vessel, wherein a damaged blood vessel wall is covered by a platelet and fibrin-containing clot to stop bleeding and begin repair of the damaged vessel. Platelets immediately form a plug at the site of injury, this is called primary homeostasis.
