Platelets (thrombocytes) are not cells, they are just pieces of the megakaryocytes (their mighty parents).

Platelets are called thrombocytes because they will help form a clot (thrombus)...At least they form a temporary platelet plug to stop bleeding in small vessels (primary hemostasis).

The normal platelet count is 150,000 to 400,000/ microliter.

Hemostasis is defined as "cessation of blood bleeding”
There are 2 types of hemostasis:
1. Primary hemostasis: formation of weak, temporary platelet plug (by platelets)
2. Secondary hemostasis: formation of stronger fibrin meshwork (by coagulation factors).

I’m a second year Medical Biology student and my curiosity of platelets brought me here. I thought this would be hard to grasp because I have no prior knowledge in any of these aside from the basics. But you Sir taught it like its just A B C. Thank you so much Medicosis, you’re the best professor I have.

I love your explanation, but is there a simplified version meant for high schoolers? Thank you. I understood a few words that I wanted to get from you, so it's a 5/5, but I couldn't understand like, a lot of things.
