'''Blood clotting''' is a disease that is caused by a thickened mass in the blood. Blood clotting stops blood flowing, like coagulation. Blood clotting happens to prevent from shocking or possibility of death. However, blood clotting is way faster than the process of coagulation and it has red blood cells. | '''Blood clotting''' is a disease that is caused by a thickened mass in the blood.

A blood clotting consists of a plug of platelets enmeshed in a network of insoluble fibrin molecules. Blood clotting requires calcium ions (Ca<sup>2+</sup>) so the blood do not clot in the bag. This system also requires about a dozen other protein clotting factors. | A blood clotting consists of a plug of platelets enmeshed in a network of insoluble fibrin molecules.

* Controlling Clotting | |||
Blood clotting system is controlled by antithrombin III, heparin, and protein C. Antithrombin III is a plasma protein (a serpin) prevents the formation of thrombin by binding to prothrombin. | |||
