(or factors), _____ is most plentiful clotting factor), ______ also
contained within plasma Correct Answer-water, proteins, albumin,
globulins, clotting, fibrinogen, electrolytes
serum is plasma without Correct Answer-clotting factors

but essential for clotting)
Contain ______ granules which can release _____ proteins, ______, and
_____ factors when they sense a vessel injury
Normal platelet count is _______
