Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Erythropoietin (EPO) primarily increases erythrocytes (red blood cells), thrombopoietin (TPO) primarily increases platelets, and colony-stimulating factor (CSF) such as CFU-GM primarily increases granulocytes (neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils). Therefore, the correct answer is B, which includes erythrocytes, platelets, and granulocytes.
