Watson and Crick discovering DNA Watson and Cricks discovery of DNA was important for many reasons because DNA made it possible to use genetic screening to identify which patients have ‘faulty’ genes which will lead to genetic illness such as Alzheimer’s. Watson and Crick discovered the structure of DNA in 1953. A reason that it was important was because it has provided an explanation for diseases and conditions that the germ theory cannot explain‚ for instance‚ cancer. This was important because

Watson has the ability to go far beyond responding to simple commands it has the ability to understand language‚ search millions of data sets within three seconds and learn from its mistakes and its successes. It has 15 terabytes of RAM‚ 2‚880 processor cores and operates at 80 teraflops. It needs this much hardware to process thousands or algorithms that were programmed and can

1950 by Watson and Crick‚ but they are misguided‚ in fact it was discovered almost centuries before by a number of less known scientists. Genes were discovered to be heritable from parents by a humble pea grower by the name of Gregor Mendel in 1866. Since then we have discovered that DNA‚ also known as deoxyribonucleic acid‚ is the carrier of genes‚ traits that pass down from generation to generation.The reality is that the credit didn’t go to everyone who deserved it.
