Solution

The correct option is D Munch
Mass flow or pressure flow hypothesis was put forward by Munch (1927,1930). According to this hypothesis, organic substances move from the region of higher osmotic pressure to the region of lower osmotic pressure in a mass flow due to the development of a gradient.
So, the correct answer is 'Munch'
