Solution

The correct option is A Biogenetic Law

From bio-genetic law, "Ontogeny summarizes phylogeny" is an infectious expression authored by Ernst Haeckel, a nineteenth-century German researcher, and logician to imply that the improvement of a living being (ontogeny) communicates all the middle of the road types of its predecessors all through advancement (phylogeny).

So, the correct option is 'Biogenetic Law'.
