Correct Answer: A
Solution :
[a] Saltation theory was given by de Vries who was a Dutch botanist working with primroses. He believed that a new species had suddenly sprung into existence as a mutation. He theorized that new species "saltated" (leaped), that is continually sprung into existence. Oparin and Haldane give origin of life, according to which life evolved in the oceans during a period when the atmosphere was reducing ? containing \[{{H}_{2}},{{H}_{2}}O,N{{H}_{3}},C{{H}_{4}},\] and \[C{{O}_{2}}\] but no free \[{{O}_{2}}\] Reproductive fitness was given by Darwin. Louis Pasteur was a French chemist and microbiologist renowned for his discoveries of the principles of vaccination, microbial fermentation and pasteurisation. According to him, life comes from pre-existing life.You need to login to perform this action.
