All about Hemophilia
Cells aren't the only part of your blood. Blood
also contains a yellow-colored fluid called plasma.
Plasma contains lots of proteins, molecules that
are a necessary part of all life processes. Proteins
are responsible for all growth and maintenance
of your body. There are lots of kinds of proteins
aaaand each has a special job.
There is a group of proteins, called clotting
factors, that help your body form a scab, also
called a clot, when a blood vessel breaks and blood
starts to leak out.
