Vedclass · Accepted Answer

Fibroblasts

Vedclass · Answer

(B) In areolar connective tissue,the matrix is primarily secreted by fibroblasts. Fibroblasts are the most abundant cells in the connective tissue proper. They are responsible for the synthesis and secretion of structural proteins like collagen and elastin,as well as the ground substance (matrix) components like polysaccharides. Mast cells are involved in immune responses (secreting histamine,heparin),and fibrocytes are inactive forms of fibroblasts. Therefore,the correct answer is $B$.
