All four listed cell types, Monocyte, Chondrocyte, Basophil, and Lymphocyte, are types of cells found in animals. Therefore, the correct option is D.
Monocytes, Basophils, and Lymphocytes are specific types of white blood cells (leukocytes) found in the circulatory and lymphatic systems of vertebrates, which are animals. Chondrocytes are the cells that produce and maintain cartilage, a connective tissue found in many animals.
Animal cells are eukaryotic cells that form the tissues and organs of animals. The listed cell types are examples of specialized cells performing distinct functions within the animal body, such as immune response (Monocyte, Basophil, Lymphocyte) and structural support (Chondrocyte).
