Solution
The correct option is D Both Assertion and Reason are incorrect. Blood doesn't coagulate in the uninjured vessels. Heparin remains in the normal blood supply. It prevents blood coagulation in the vessels and keeps normal blood flow. Injured blood vessels release thromboplastin and anti-heparin to initiate blood clotting. Therefore, the correct answer is option D.
