Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
John Dalton is the only modern scientist among the options listed. He was an English chemist, physicist, and meteorologist who is best known for proposing the modern atomic theory and for his research into color blindness, sometimes referred to as Daltonism in his honor. Socrates and Democritus were ancient Greek philosophers, and there is no widely recognized scientist by the name of Thomaford in historical or modern scientific records.
