The average number membership of an American mosque was 1,248 in 2011, which counts Muslims who at least pray for Eid-al-Fitr, one of two major holidays, at the mosque. That's down from 1,625 in 2000 and is likely because of a growth in the number of mosques.
Platelet Function The role of blood platelets is to clog broken blood vessels to prevent the loss of blood. Under normal conditions, platelets move through blood vessels in an unactivated state.
Red blood cells carry oxygen to all parts of the body. White blood cells help fight infection. Platelets are tiny cells that have a big job in stopping bleeding. Proteins in the blood called clotting factors work to form a clot. In order to understand bleeding disorders, you have to know how the proteins and the platelets in the blood work together. Our bodies make platelets inside the marrow of our bones. Platelets are disc shaped cells that are so small they can only be seen with a microscope.
