Answer:

A. COAGULATION

Explanation:

Hemostasis is stopping bleeding. To prevent or keep blood in the blood vessels due to damage of the vessels.

Three steps are important in hemostasis;

1. Vasoconstriction : which is the contraction of the smooth muscles of the blood vessels reducing the amount of blood flow to the area of damage and thereby blood loss.

2. Platelet Plug Formation: this is the function of platelet in the blood. It attaches to the damaged endothelium and form a plug.

3. Coagulation/ Clotting : this is the release of clotting factors to the surface of the damaged vessel.

Fibrin is a major component of the clotting factor.

So therefore, coagulation is a process in hemostasis. Formation of platelet plug is a stage also and not the formation of platelet in the blood.

• How is a cell's specialized shape related to its specialized function?<br> CELL PARTS:
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

Cells vary greatly in shape These shapes are often related to the function they perform. like the disk shape of  erythrocytes  can absorb and transport oxygen due to increased surface area., the amoeboid shape of leukocytes allow them to squeeze through capillaries. etc.

Explanation:

Cells can be disc-like , polygonal, rectangular, cubopid thread like branched or even irregular. these are related to the functions that each cell performs.

Some examples showing relation between cell shape and function are as follows.:

  • Human blood cells are circular and biconcave to transport oxygen.
  • White blood cell are amoeboid to squeeze through thin capillaries.
  • Nerve cells are long so that they can carry nerve impulse to a long distance very quickly.
  • Guard cells of stomata are bean or dumbell shaped to open and close the stomata.
