Usually they are slowly dissolved and resorbed by the body in the weeks following the extraction as the surgical site is healing. Smoking, swishing water, or sucking on a straw immediately after an extraction can cause a blood clot to fall out and can result in a painful condition known as a "dry socket".

Yes it is normal. It is also a natural to suck at it like you would at something in between your teeth but don't do that it can dislodge the clot and it will start bleeding again. In the next few days the clot will get smaller and smaller until the opening closes. Gargle or rinse with warm salt water to keep the area clean (1 teaspoon of salt to a coffee cup full of warm water). See the related link for more information to the left under this answer.
