Darwin-H.M.S. Beagle
Charles Darwin took a voyage around the world on a ship H.M.S. Beagle.His observations during the voyage contributed as evidences for his theory of natural selection.

Oparin-Chemical evolution
Oparin gave the theory for the origin of life which is also called the chemical theory, which suggests that life originated from inorganic molecules. The conditions of the primitive environment supported the formation of molecules. The molecules aggregated to form organic compounds which organised to form the first living cell.

Haldane- England
Haldane was born in England and had views similar to that of Oparin regarding the origin of life.

Wallace-Naturalist
Wallace was a British naturalist and had similar views like Darwin regarding evolution through natural selection.

Miller-Formation of Amino acid
Miller conducted his experiments in which he circulated a mixture of methane, ammonia, hydrogen and water vapour and passed electric discharge through the mixture. He observed the formation of organic molecules along with amino acids.
