Solution

The correct option is B Stephen Hales
Plant physiology is a subdiscipline of botany concerned with the functioning, or physiology, of plants.
Stephen Hales is considered the 'father of plant physiology' for the many experiments he conducted in 1727; though Julius von Sachs unified the pieces of plant physiology and put them together as a discipline.
