D Correct answer
Explanation

Blood clotting (coagulation) is the process that prevents excessive blood loss when a vessel is injured. Platelets accumulate at the injury site and release clotting factors that form a fibrin mesh to seal the wound. Transfusion is transferring blood between persons, not preventing loss.
