The blood component that will need to be replaced is Platelets.

DIC stands for disseminated intravascular coagulation, it is a disease in which the proteins in the blood that regulate clotting becomes hyperactive. It leads to clot formation in the blood vessels which may clog them to prevent flow into the body parts and cause serious damage.

When the platelets are consumed in the formation of clots their shortage may cause an unstoppable bleeding from even a small cut. You may bleed spontaneously even without an injury. Its main cause may be due to an inflammation, injury, or due to prior illness.

After circumcision, nighttime and morning erections often cause pain because they pull on the skin stitches and cause the man to wake up. The pain usually causes the erection to subside; this relaxes the tension on skin stitches, and the pain goes away.

lbvjy [14]

The child which would potentially be considered an emancipated minor is someone with financial independence who is living with his parents.

<h3>Who is a Minor?</h3>

This is referred to as a person who is below the legal age of majority or adulthood. In most climes, it means that the individual has to be below 18 years of age and are mostly dependent on their parents in the home.

In a situation whereby the individual is referred to an emancipated minor then the individual doesn't depend on his parents or guardian and they don't have control over him/her.

An emancipated minor is one who is financially independent and able to take care of him or herself. The individual must also have the required legal backing for it to stand which is why it was chosen as the most appropriate choice.
