Summary Introduction
To review:
The differences between the intrinsic and the extrinsic pathways of blood clotting.
Introduction:
Blood clotting is one of the mechanisms of the hemostasis process. The blood never clots when it is inside the blood vessels. However, when it is drawn outside the body, it starts to thicken and then, forms a gel. This gel (blood clot) separates from liquid part of the blood.
