Correct Answer » D Explanation |

These cells are monocytes
The myeloid stem cell, a CFU (colony-forming units), will produce progeny that may differentiate into CFC (colony-forming cells) to give rise to several types of blood cells or to a single type of blood cell.
These are designated CFC-E for erythrocytes, CFC-Meg for megakaryocytes, CFC-GM for monocyte and/or neutrophil-producing cells, CFC-Bas for basophils, and CFC-Eosin for acidophils.
