Answer:

c. platelets - phagocytize

Explanation:

Platelets are blood cells also known as thrombocyte, that helps with blood clotting to stop bleeding. In the case of an injury that leads to blood vessel damage, signals are sent to the blood platelets, once the signals are sent, the platelets and other coagulation react to the blood vessel damage and they form they initiate a plug (clot) to fix the blood vessel damage.

The are usually not involved in phagocytosis, the phagocytes including macrophages, monocytes, granulocytes, and dendritic cells are involved in phagocytosis

Organic molecules derived from vitamins that act as helpers are called
AysviL [449]
Coenzymes

Coenzymes are small organic molecules that, themselves, do not function as catalysts (i.e. enzymes) but aid the latter in carrying out their functions. Enzymes are biological catalysts, which means that they allow reactions to occur at lower activation energies. In a way, enzymes help to "speed up" chemical reactions. 

Coenzymes are mostly derived from vitamins. Examples include TPP from Vitamin B1 (thiamine), FAD from Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin), and NAD+ from Niacin.
