Know the difference between Cardiac muscle cells and skeletal muscle cells

1) Know that activation of plasminogen to plasmin and it dissolute clot.

. Activated plasmin can dissolve clots by: a.) digesting fibrin threads. b.) inactivating substances such as: fibrinogen, prothrombin and factor V, VIII, and XII.
