Following a lecture on hemostasis, a nursing student accidently cuts her hand while preparing supper for her family. She watches the laceration very closely. Sure enough, the first thing she notes is:
 
  A) Small hair-like strands form a blood (fibrin) clot.
  B) Limited bleeding initially as a response to the small vessel walls being sealed by a platelet plug.
  C) Clot retraction by pushing serum out of the clot and joining the edges of the broken vessel.
  D) Initially, it takes a few seconds for blood to appear as a result of vessel spasm.
