Answer: B. Self-renewal, proliferation and stemness/plasticity.

Step-by-step explanation:

The major role of the bone marrow cell is to produce the blood cells in the body. These cells are responsible for self renewal. These cells divide in large numbers so as to replace the dead and injured cells. These cells proliferate by dividing into numerous cells so as to perform the desired functional role. The stemness and plasticity can be seen in bone marrow cells as these cells in adults can be molded into forms or shapes that they can perform a specialized function in the body.
