Đáp án D

Giải thích:

Mệnh đề quan hệ, để thay thế cho danh từ chỉ người, ở đây là the scientist ta dùng đại từ quan hệ who.

A thiếu đại từ quan hệ

B sai do nếu dùng whose thì ngay phía sau phải có một vị ngữ cho scientific discovery of radium.

C sai do đằng sau ở câu gốc đã có động từ làm vị ngữ rồi nên ta chỉ cần điền mệnh đề bổ sung.

Dịch nghĩa: Marie Curie, nhà khoa học mà phát hiện ra radium, được giải thưởng Nobel nhờ công trình của bà.
