B Correct answer
Explanation

Red blood corpuscles (RBCs) are formed in the bone marrow through a process called erythropoiesis. In adults, this primarily occurs in flat bones like the sternum, pelvis, and ribs. The liver produces RBCs during fetal development, while kidneys produce the hormone erythropoiesis-stimulating erythropoietin but not the actual cells.
