Solution

The correct option is D Excessive bleeding
Platelets are the parts of the blood that help the blood clot. They are smaller than red or white blood cells. If the number of platelets is too low, excessive bleeding can occur. However, if the number of platelets is too high, blood clots can form thrombosis, which may obstruct blood vessels and result in such events as a stroke.
Therefore, the correct answer is option B.
