B Correct answer
Explanation

Red blood cells (erythrocytes) are produced in the bone marrow through hematopoiesis. In adults, this primarily occurs in the flat bones (sternum, ribs, pelvis). The liver produces RBCs in fetuses, and kidneys produce erythropoietin that stimulates RBC production, but don't make the cells themselves.
