(B)Platelets are cell fragments produced from (3).
(C)During clot formation, fibrins are formed by the conversion of inactive (4) in the plasma by the enzyme (5).

A
(l)-Neutrophils, (2)-basophiIs, (4)-fibrinogens, (5)-thrombin
💡 Explanation:

Out of all other leucocytes, the neutrophils (60-65%) are most abundant and the least are basophils (0.5-1%). Platelets are cell fragments produced from megakaryocytes. During the blood clotting, the enzyme thrombin converts inactive fibrinogens into active fibrins.. 

Thus, the correct answer is '(l)-Neutrophils, (2)-basophiIs, (4)-fibrinogens, (5)-thrombin).'
