Q.

Alum stops bleeding in minor cuts because of –

A. solvation
B. emulsion
C. dialysis
D. coagulation
Answer» D. coagulation
Explanation: Coagulation is the process by which blood forms clots. It is an important part of homeostasis, the cessation of blood loss from a damaged vessel, wherein a damaged blood vessel wall is covered by a platelet and fibrin- containing clot to stop bleeding and begin repair of the damaged vessel. Disorders of coagulation can lead to an increased risk of bleeding (hemorrhage) or obstructive clotting (thrombosis).
