Solution

The correct option is B Purkinje

Purkinje coined the term protoplasm. Purkinje is best known for his discovery of large nerve cells with many branching extensions found in the cortex of the cerebellum of the brain and of the fibrous tissue that conducts the pacemaker stimulus along the inside walls of the ventricles to all parts of the heart. So, the correct answer is 'Purkinje'.
