Francois Quesnay - tried to discover the natural economic laws governing society.

Answer: Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

Francois Quesnay was a French economist and physician. He published the economic table known as the Tableau economique. This published work was the first attempt to describe how an economy worked. The published work provided an analytical view of the working of an economy.

The table is considered to be the most important contribution to economic thought and is taken by many economists as the reference for developing their thesis and papers. The paper basically states who produces what in the society and who makes contributions to the society.
