Solution

The correct option is D Bone marrow
Pluripotent stem cells are capable of forming cells and tissues of multiple function and differentiation. The myeloid progenitor cells present in the bone marrow are capable of forming the blood cells that can differentiate to form the red blood cells, white blood cells, and megakaryocytes. RBCs and WBCs are already differentiated cells.
Hence, the correct answer is 'Bone marrow'.
