Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Hemostasis is the natural process that stops blood loss when an injury occurs.It involves three steps: (1) vascular spasm (vasoconstriction); (2) platelet plug formation; and (3) coagulation. Vasoconstriction is a reflex in which blood vessels narrow to increase blood pressure.
