Solution
The correct option is C Dalton and Felix
Golgi apparatus is a complex organelle made of stack of cisternae, a network of tubules, vesicles and vacuoles which were first seen by George (1867) but studied by Camillo Golgi in 1898 in nerve cells of 'Barn owl and cat' through metallic impregnation technique (Osmium chloride + silver salts). Due to metallic impregnation artifacts, Golgi apparatus was once called 'Internal Reticular Apparatus'. The concept was changed after observation of the apparatus under an electron microscope by Dalton and Felix (1954).
