Solution

The correct option is B)
Henri Dutrochet, a French physiologist who is known for his valuable works in animal and plant physiology coined the term 'respiration'. He also discovered and named the process of osmosis (passage of solvent through a semipermeable membrane) that occurs at the cellular level in both plants and animals.
So the correct answer is 'Dutrochet'.
