Answer 1

The correct option is A Hugo de Vries, Carl Correns and Erich von Tschermak

Three botanists, working independently during the 1900s, rediscovered Mendel's findings. They were Hugo de Vries, Carl Correns and Erich von Tschermak.

Singer and Nicolson gave the most accepted 'Fluid Mosaic Model' of the plasma membrane.

A natural system of classification was proposed by Bentham and Hooker in three volumes of their work 'Genera Plantarum'.

Hatch and Slack discovered an alternate cyclical pathway of carbon fixation found in certain plants. This cycle was named as Hatch and Slack cycle that occurs in $C_4$ plants like sugarcane.
