I think its C am I right? I'm taking the same test

The correct answer is option osteoblasts; callus.

After the fracture, the body starts the healing the bone. In the process of healing of the bone, the osteoblasts are increased at the site of the fracture and starts the formation of the new bone cells. this result in formation of a structure called callus. the callus is formed around the broken bone; this helps in joining the end of the bones.
