Detailed explanation-1: -Thrombocytes are pieces of very large cells in the bone marrow called megakaryocytes . They help form blood clots to slow or stop bleeding and to help wounds heal. Having too many or too few thrombocytes or having platelets that don’t work as they should can cause problems.
Detailed explanation-2: -“Platelets are minute fragments of blood cells that help in the formation of clots in the body to stop bleeding.” Any damage in the blood vessels sends signals to the platelets.
Detailed explanation-3: -Platelets, or thrombocytes, are anucleate disk-shaped cells, 2–4 m in diameter, that play a vital role in the hemostatic process. Platelets are produced in the bone marrow under the influence of a growth factor known as thrombopoietin.
