Mast cells secrete-

  1. Histamine
  2. Hippurin
  3. Haemoglobin
  4. Myoglobin

Answer

(1) Histamine

Solution

As per NCERT, the allergic response is due to the release of chemicals like histamine and serotonin from the mast cells.

Mast cells of areolar connective tissue secrete histamine, heparin and serotonin, whereas haemoglobin and myoglobin are pigments of RBCs and muscle fibres, not secretions of mast cells.

∴ Mast cells secrete histamine.
