Correct Answer: A
Solution :

Von Baer is known as "Father of Modem Embryology". He also discovered ovum of mammals. Weismann gave theory of germplasm, which states that inheritance of characters from parents to offspring is mediated through germplasm, which continues generation after generation. Mendel is known as "Father of Genetics". He published "laws of heredity".
