B Correct answer
Explanation

This is the correct match. Natural killer (NK cells) cells are leukocytes that attack and destroy tumor cells. Dendritic cells present antigens to T-cells. Mast cells are most often associated with allergy and anaphylaxis. Macrophages act as scavengers, ridding the body of worn-out cells and other debris.
