Answer:

Tell Molly that the bleeding will stop because hemostasis is the way the body stops blood loss when something happens to a vessel. This is the process of the blood clotting. If we didn't have hemostasis bleeding would continue. Unless she has hemophilia, the blood will stop. The first thing that happens is vascular constriction, then formations of platelet plugs, then the blood clots (coagulation) last the fibrous tissue grows (Fibrosis and fibrinolysis)
