Mature, less active cells in Connective tissue end in
A
blast
B
clast
C
cyte
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cyte cells are cells that maintain a matrix of connective tissues. Clast cells destroy it in order to remodel it. Examples are bone cells: osteoblasts, osteocytes, and osteoclasts. Connective tissue cell names indicate a specific cellular function.

Detailed explanation-2: -The principal cell of connective tissues is the fibroblast, an immature connective tissue cell that has not yet differentiated. This cell makes the fibers found in nearly all of the connective tissues. Fibroblasts are motile, able to carry out mitosis, and can synthesize whichever connective tissue is needed.

Detailed explanation-3: -White blood cells, or leukocytes (Greek; leucko=white and cyte = cell), are part of the immune system participating in both the innate and humoral immune responses. They circulate in the blood and mount inflammatory and cellular responses to injury or pathogens.

Detailed explanation-4: -The common cell types in connective tissue include: fibroblasts, mast cells, plasma cells, macrophages, adipocytes, and leukocytes.
