Solution

The correct option is B Chondroblasts
Cartilage is a type of skeletal tissue made up of chondrocytes. The matrix of the cartilage is secreted by the immature type of cells called chondroblasts. When this matrix surrounds the chondroblasts, the cells become chondrocytes.
So, the correct answer is 'Chondroblasts'.
