Detailed explanation-1: -Blood coagulation occurs in the following sequence: Whenever there is rupture of blood vessels or damage is caused to blood, a complex of substances called prothrombin activator complex is formed. The activators convert prothrombin into thrombin. Thrombin acts as an enzyme and converts fibrinogen into fibrin threads.
