1 Answer

Answer and Explanation:

False. When an injury occurs, it is not white blood cells that rush to the site to form a clot, but rather blood cells called platelets. Platelets are tiny blood cells that help your body form clots to stop bleeding. When a blood vessel is injured, it sends out signals to the platelets, which then rush to the site of damage and form a plug (clot) to fix the damage. White blood cells, on the other hand, are part of the immune system and help fight infections.
