A Platelet Plug is Formed When Fibrinogen is Converted to Fibrin

Question

A platelet plug is formed when fibrinogen is converted to fibrin.

Accepted Answer

A platelet plug is formed when platelets aggregate and stick together, not when fibrinogen is converted to fibrin. Fibrinogen is converted to fibrin during the process of blood clotting, which reinforces and stabilizes the platelet plug.
