Solution

The correct option is D Neurospora crassa
Beadle and Tatum did classical experiments on Neurospora crassa to prove that in a multistep biochemical pathway, each step is controlled by different enzymes and each of these enzymes are encoded by specific gene. This is called as one gene one enzyme hypothesis. Option A is the correct answer.
