The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

Oparin and Haldane proposed that the first form of life could have come from pre-existing non-living organic molecules (eg, RNA, protein, etc) and that formation of life was preceded by chemical evolution, ie, formation of diverse organic molecules from inorganic constituents. The conditions on Earth were-high temperature, volcanic storms, reducing atmosphere containing $CH_{4},\,NH_{3}$, etc. In 1953, S L Miller, created similar conditions in a laboratory scale and with this evidence, chemical evolution was more or less accepted.

Origins of Life

Origin of Life is considered as one of the most important phenomena that happened in the history of biology. Through this phenomena we got to know about the existence of atmosphere, special gases, different forms of species, different galaxies and so on.

Evolution:

Over the years there have been changes that happen in the formation or the characteristics of the species and because of which there have been the development of new kinds of species and all this happened through the involvement of the natural process and thus came to be known as the evolution. 

Charles Darwin Theory of Evolution:

Charles Darwin in his book “On the origin of the species” tells about how the organisms have evolved over the different generations by inheriting the different forms of characteristics such as physical or the different behavior traits.
