Solution

The correct option is C Synthetic theory
In the 20th century conception of evolution being caused by a number of complex and often interacting processes. This is essentially a combination of Darwin's concept of natural selection, Mendel's basic genetics, along with the facts and theories of population genetics and molecular biology. So, this theory explains almost all factors related to organic evolution. Hence, this is the most accepted theory as compared to others.
