complimentary nucleotide‚ one half of the molecule can serve as a template for the construction of the other half. The four nucleotides in DNA contain the bases adenine (A)‚ guanine (G)‚ cytosine (C) and thymine (T). The people responsible for the discovery of the double-helical structure of DNA were Francis Crick‚ Rosalind Franklin‚ Linus Pauling‚ James Watson and Maurice Wilkins. To solve the structure of DNA four ideas had to come together:The first was that the phosphate backbone was on the outside

Aquaporins are "the plumbing system for cells‚" said Agre. Every cell is primarily water. "But the water doesn’t just sit in the cell‚ it moves through it in a very organized way. The process occurs rapidly in tissues that have these aquaporins or water channels." For many years‚ scientists assumed that water leaked through the cell membrane‚ and some water does. "But the very rapid movement of water through some cells was not explained by this theory‚" said Agre. Aquaporins selectively conduct

all know that penicillin is one of the top known class of antibiotics prescribed today. Although this drug has been getting numerous applauds since the mid 1900s on its effectiveness; it did not start at that way.

Fleming had returned from a summer vacation and began sorting petri dishes‚ which contained colonies. Which are

Rosalind Franklin Crick and Watson‚ together with Maurice Wilkins‚ won the 1962 Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine for their 1953 determination of the structure of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) this was one of the most significant scientific discoveries of the 20th century. James Watson and Francis Crick discovered the molecular structure of DNA model of the structure resembled a twisted rope ladder. They proposed that the DNA molecule consisted of two spirally wound‚ helical chains. Rosalind

The Discovery of the Fibonacci Sequence A man named Leonardo Pisano‚ who was known by his nickname‚ "Fibonacci"‚ and named the series after himself‚ first discovered the Fibonacci sequence around 1200 A.D. The Fibonacci sequence is a sequence in which each term is the sum of the 2 numbers preceding it. The first 10 Fibonacci numbers are: (1‚ 1‚ 2‚ 3‚ 5‚ 8‚ 13‚ 21‚ 34‚ 55‚ 89). These numbers are obviously recursive. Fibonacci was born around 1170 in Italy‚ and he died around 1240 in Italy
