Solution

The correct option is B Georges Caviar

The main genuine endeavours to figure a geologic time scale that could be connected anyplace on Earth were made in the late eighteenth century. The most powerful of those early endeavours (supported by Werner, among others). The distinguishing proof of strata by the fossils they contained, spearheaded by William Smith, Georges Cuvier, Jean d'Omalius d'Halloy, and Alexandre Brongniart in the mid-nineteenth century, empowered geologists to separate Earth history.

So, the correct option is 'Georges Caviar'.
