Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Fibroblasts are the cells responsible for producing collagen fibers in connective tissues proper. Mast cells are responsible for releasing histamine and other substances in response to injury or allergens. Adipocytes are cells that store fat, but do not produce collagen fibers. Phagocytes are cells that engulf and digest cellular debris, but do not produce collagen fibers.
