Coagulate generally refers to the process of a liquid, particularly blood, changing into a soft, semi-solid or solid state. This process is essential in preventing excessive bleeding when the body's internal/external tissues are injured. The transformation involves the aggregation of particles into a solid mass, often through the action of enzymes in the case of blood. In broader scientific contexts, it describes the process by which colloidal particles come together to form a gelatinous mass or precipitate, typically as a result of chemical reactions or changes in physical conditions.
