Answer 1

To illustrate the formation of blood cells, the **computer-generated model** would be the most useful option. This type of model can visually represent complex biological processes, such as hematopoiesis (the formation of blood cells), in detail and can often include animations or interactive features to enhance understanding. It can effectively demonstrate how blood cells are produced in the bone marrow and how various types of cells develop from stem cells.

While the other options, such as a photograph, plastic bone, or dissected pig, provide valuable information or context about the structure of bones or blood cells, they do not illustrate the dynamic process of blood cell formation as effectively as a computer-generated model would.
