C. Leeuwenhoek

Answer: Option B

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Double fertilization and triple fusion were discovered by Nawaschin and Gruignard.
Double fertilization is a complex fertilization mechanism of flowering plants (angiosperms). This process involves the joining of a female gametophyte with two male gametes (sperm).
It begins when a pollen grain adheres to the stigma of the carpel, the female reproductive structure of a flower. The pollen grain then takes in moisture and begins to germinate, forming a pollen tube that extends down toward the ovary through the style.
