Solution
The correct option is D50,000/mm3 Hemorrhagic Disorders Spontaneous or near spontaneous bleeding caused by a defect in clotting mechanisms (blood coagulation disorders) or another abnormality causing a structural flaw in the blood vessels. Platelets play an important role in blood clotting, so thrombocytopenia puts you at higher risk of bleeding. Any time your platelet count drops below 50,000 per mm3 you are considered to be at increased risk for bleeding.
