Who called larger colloidal particles of primitive sea as coacervates?

Solution
The correct option is D Oparin
Abiogenesis of complex organic compounds in primitive sea was followed by formation of large spherical colloidal aggregates of macromolecules, the coacervates as called by Oparin, that remain suspended as droplets in seawater. The associated colloidal particles removed intervening water by dehydration/ opposite charge attraction and maintained a simple but persistent organization. Aggregation of fat molecules formed a coating membrane around each coacervate to hold the colloidal particles together thereby facilitating chemical reactions among them. Therefore, the correct answer is option B.
