The correct answer is:

                    

Thrombocytopenia is a condition characterized by abnormally low levels of thrombocytes or blood platelets in the blood. Platelets can release a variety of substances most of which are involved in the coagulation or clotting of blood. A reduction in their number can lead to clotting disorders which will lead to excessive loss of blood from the body.
