The "primordial soup" refers to the combination of organic compounds in warm salty water, which is thought to be where life originated on early Earth. This concept was supported by the experiments of scientists like Oparin and Miller-Urey, which showed that organic molecules could form under simulated early Earth conditions. Therefore, the correct answer is option B.
