Austin Wilmot Biotechnology Russo 4/21/13 There were many pieces of evidence that led Watson and Crick to their discovery of the structure of DNA. This included Chargaff’s rules‚ X-ray diffraction studies‚ and the use of brass and wire models of sugars‚ and phosphate groups. This revelation contributed heavily to scientific research and studies. They deduced that from their studies that DNA is structured in a Double Helix. With all of the evidence they accumulated they were able to achieve

Pauling had stumbled when he was perceiving DNA to have three interwoven strands instead of two. I find it very interesting that if Watson and Crick had not also been working to discover the structure and Pauling had not caught that he made an error‚ then people might have thought that he was correct and we might have been learning in class about a whole different type of DNA. The structure would

In 1953‚ Francis Crick‚ along with James Watson‚ came up with the idea that DNA was in a double-helix structure. Well‚ they were the ones that got the Nobel Prize in 1962. A huge part of the discovery of the double-helix structure should go to Rosalind Franklin. But‚ since she was a woman‚ she did not receive much recognition for her work. In 1952‚ Raymond Gosling‚ under Franklin’s guidance‚ took an X-ray diffraction image of DNA. This image proved that DNA was a double-helix. The experiment is posted

FRANCIS DRAKE-A SUCCESSFUL EXPLORER... In my humble opinion‚ the best explorer in the late 15th/16th century was Sir Francis Drake. Not only was he the first Englishman to circumnavigate the globe‚ but his voyages helped create a more accurate picture of the world‚ which can help us greatly and helped the Tudors in England at the time‚ who only argued that the world was flat and did not know all the countries present‚ whom Drake saw and studied himself through his voyages. Also he founded the

from meeting in the ‘men only’ parlor to discuss and spend time with her fellow scientists—due to her gender. Her reasons behind her hesitation to sharing her research was due to the fact that she felt her fellow scientists—namely James Watson‚ Francis Crick‚ and Maurice Wilkens—wanted to ‘play games for fame and fortune‚ without doing the work’ by the research-proof method she so cherished. It was baffling to Franklin that these so called ‘men-geniuses’ were credited and such when they seemed to be
