Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Platelets are membrane-bound cell fragments derived from megakaryocytes, which are produced during thrombopoiesis.
Detailed explanation-2: -Platelets 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.
Detailed explanation-3: -Thrombocytes, or platelets, are not complete cells, but are small fragments of very large cells called megakaryocytes. Megakaryocytes develop from hemocytoblasts in the red bone marrow. Thrombocytes become sticky and clump together to form platelet plugs that close breaks and tears in blood vessels.
