Solution

The correct option is B Urey and Miller
Years after Oparin and Haldane independently proposed the theory of abiogenesis, in 1953, Urey and Miller experimentally proved the origin of life from inorganic substances. They created laboratory conditions similar to what would have been on the earth at the time of origin of life.
