      Prothrombin (factor II) is a vitamin K–dependent coagulation factor. On activation, prothrombin is proteolytically cleaved to form thrombin, and in turn acts as a serine protease that converts fibrinogen to fibrin. In addition, thrombin catalyzes many other coagulation-related reactions.

      So vitamin K is correct answer.

      Vitamin K
      Its plays a major role in helping the blood clot, preventing excessive bleeding. Unlike many other vitamins, vitamin K is not typically used as a dietary supplement. Vitamin K is actually a group of compounds. The most important of these compounds appears to be vitamin K1 and vitamin K2.

      1. Vitamin A takes part in the formation of visual retinal pigments like rhodopsin, iodopsin etc. and thus, it is required for normal vision.
      2. Vitamin D regulates the metabolism of calcium and phosphorus and in turn affects the growth of body by affecting the growth of bone and teeth.
      3. Vitamin K is necessary for the formation of prothrombin (important component of blood clotting mechanism) in the liver of human beings and thus, it is involved in clotting of blood.
      4. Vitamin E is necessary for maintaining sterility.

      So, the correct answer is ‘Vitamin K’. (Option-3)
