Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Chomsky based his theory on the idea that all languages contain similar structures and rules (a universal grammar), and the fact that children everywhere acquire language the same way, and without much effort, seems to indicate that we’re born wired with the basics already present in our brains.

Detailed explanation-2: -It was Chomsky’s system that attracted the most attention and received the most extensive exemplification and further development.
