Solution

The correct option is D Ivanovsky
Dmitri Ivanovsky reported in 1892 that sap from a diseased tobacco plant remained infectious to healthy tobacco plants despite having been filtered.
Then, in 1898, Martinus Beijerinck called the filtered, infectious substance a virus.
Hence option B is correct.
