Solution

The correct option is C Darwin
Oparin and Haldane are known for independently coming up with the theory of abiogenesis or biochemical evolution of life in the 1920s. Urey and Miller (1953) proved this theory through their experiments resembling the environmental conditions of primitive earth. Charles Darwin postulated the universally accepted theory of 'Natural Selection', and wrote the book 'The Origin of Species' in the year 1859.
