Answer:

d. platelets

Step-by-step explanation:

Platelets often referred to as thrombocytes, are membrane-bounded cell fragments that are obtained from the dissociation of bigger precursor cells referred to as megakaryocytes, that are produced from stem cells in the bone marrow.

Platelets are necessary for the blood clotting activities, making it very important for wound healing.
