Answer:
The correct answer would be B. thrombocytes.
Thrombocytes, also called platelets are the components of the blood which play important role in the process of hemostasis.
Hemostasis is the process of preventing the flow of blood from the damaged site or damaged blood vessel. It is the first stage involved in the healing of the wound.
Platelets form the platelet-plug at the site of damage which in turn activates another blood clotting factor fibrinogen.
Fibrinogen gets converted into an active fibrin (insoluble) which forms the meshwork like structure to trap more and more platelets and red blood cells. It results in the formation of a clot which completely seals the cut or damaged site.
