Solution
The correct option is B Plasma cell
A plasma cell is known as cartwheel cell. Plasma cells are also called plasma B cells, plasmocytes, and effector B cells. They are white blood cells that secrete large volumes of antibodies. Plasma cells are large lymphocytes with a considerable nucleus-to-cytoplasm ratio. They have basophilic cytoplasm and an eccentric nucleus with heterochromatin in a characteristic cartwheel or clock face arrangement. Their cytoplasm also contains a pale zone that on electron microscopy contains an extensive Golgi apparatus and centrioles.So, the correct answer is 'Plasma cell'
