    The correct answer is b. Charles Lyell supported Darwin's idea that past geological processes are similar to present day processes.

    Charles Lyell was geologist who assumed that geological processes (natural process such as erosion, deposition, sedimentation) acting in the past were much the same as the ones today. Darwin constructed an explanation of the origin of living things based on Lyell's Principles in terms of natural processes.
