Solution

The correct option is C Mendel
Mendelian inheritance was initially derived from the work of Gregor Johann Mendel, published in 1865 and 1866, which was re-discovered in 1900. It was initially very controversial. When Mendel's theories were integrated with the Chromosome Theory of Inheritance by Thomas Hunt Morgan in 1915, they became the core of classical genetics.
