Solution

The correct option is B Connective tissue
Connective tissue is the most abundant and widely distributed tissue in the body of animals. Fibroblasts, macrophages, and mast cells are specifically seen in loose connective tissue. These are irregular cells which are scattered in areolar tissue, which is an example of loose connective tissue. They perform different functions in the body.
Hence, the correct option is 'B'.
