    Answer: Option A.

    Cause clot dissolution to proceed faster.

    Explanation:

    Plasminogen activator is a substance that activates plasminogen to plasmin. Plasminogen activator is a serine proteases which catalyze the activation of plasminogen. The damaged blood tissue releases tissue plasminogen. The plasmin is important to break fibrin polymers that is formed during clotting of the blood. Increased plasminogen levels cause blood clots to dissolve faster.
