Solution

The correct option is B Turrill
William Bertram Turrill was an English Botanist who discovered the terms α, β, γ in the taxonomy and he was awarded the Fellow of the Royal Society.
Joshua Lederberg was an American molecular biologist known for his work in microbial genetics. He won the 1958 Nobel prize in physiology or medicine for discovering that bacteria can mate and exchange genes.
Thomas Henry Huxley was an English biologist specializing in comparative anatomy. He is known as "Darwin's Bulldog" for his advocacy of Charles Darwin's theory of evolution.
Jean-Baptiste Lamarck was a French naturalist and an early proponent of the idea that biological evolution occurred and proceeded in accordance with natural laws.
So the correct option is 'Turrill'.
