The three steps of hemostasis are:1. vascular spasm2 ____ 3. coagulation
A
platelet plug formation
B
agglutination
C
dilation
D
erythropoieten formation
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The three steps to platelet plug formation are platelet adherence, activation, and aggregation.

Detailed explanation-2: -Platelet plug formation. The platelet plug formation is the second step of hemostasis. It occurs after vasoconstriction. During the process, platelets begin to accumulate, or aggregate, on the damaged vessel wall.

Detailed explanation-3: -Haemostasis is the physiological process by which bleeding ceases. Haemostasis involves three basic steps: vascular spasm, the formation of a platelet plug, and coagulation, by which clotting factors promote the formation of a fibrin clot. Fibrinolysis is the process in which a clot is degraded in a healing vessel.
