Solution

The correct option is B fibroblast
A fibroblast is a type of connective tissue cells that are involved in the synthesis of extracellular matrix and the collagen. They also produce long strands of proteins that act as fibers in the tissues. Their main function is in wound healing. They are also present in the blood plasma in the form of fibrinogen.

So, the correct option is 'Fibroblast'.
