Solution

The correct option is B Darwin
Theory of Natural Selection was proposed by Charles Darwin. Darwin insisted that in a population, there always exists a number of variations based on different combinations of traits, carrying capacity of the environment is not unlimited. Hence, nature selects the best-suited organisms that have a greater chance to become parents for the next generation.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
