_ top layer - carries blood and no cells _ next layer classed as a gash _ next layer Classed as a deep cut _ last layer Might need stitches So when the top layer is split or cut, the liquid substance (blood) will escape to the surface.

Generally it flows and will dry quickly. In the meantime your platelets (cells that will clot wound and form scab) will go to the cut and begin the process of linking to each other to form said scab.

blood is acutally blue- but when released to air turns red. As the blood comes out multiple plasma cells are working away to stop the bleeding and heal the cut.

My science teacher in 7th grade is crazy about this stuff, hope this helps and PEACE!

It sounds like you have a low platelet count. Platelets are the part of the blood that forms scabs over cuts when we bleed. Your best course of action would be to discuss it with your doctor. It may be that you have to take regular injections of 'factor eight' - a synthetic drug that encourages the body's production of platelets.

Apply pressure to the wound to stop the bleeding. Go to a doctor or emergency room for stitches if needed.

Yu put pressure on the cut and then clean it with a tissue then you put a plaster over top then refreash the plater every 2 hours untill the bleeding stops.
