Answer

Correct option: A.
Calcium
Calcium plays an important role in the coagulation of blood $($blood clotting$)$. An increased concentration of calcium in the platelets helps in activating various proteins important for blood clotting and thus, results in the formation of a blood clot. It helps in the binding of clotting enzymes to phospholipids in platelets and tissue and accelerates the reaction.
