a wet one Pauling wanted gis model to be the first accurate model of DNA so he printed it quickly. Another scientist named Rosalind Franklin looked at a wet sample of DNA and realized it had two strands. Watson and crick Two students from Cambridge University looked at Pauling's paper and recognized it. They had made a similar model with a triple helix and knew Pauling was wrong,Watson and Crick looked over Franklin's work and made a new model with a double helix.…
Watson and Crick reported that DNA consisted of two polynucleotide strands wrapped into a double helix.…
Describe the structure of DNA.DNA is thread formed by two strands, related together to form a double helix. The double helix looks like a twisted ladder. The sides of this ladder are long unites called nucleotides and are made of three parts; a nitrogenous base, a sugar, and a phosphate group. The sides of the ladder or the nucleotides from the two separate strands of the DNA are attached by an appendage made of one of four separate bases. These appendages represent the rungs of the DNA ladder and are attached to the complimentary strand of the DNA. The bases or rungs are made of either Adenine (A) OR Thymine (T) or Cytosine (C) and Guanine (G). The attachment of the strands by the bases is specific Adenine can only join with Thymine, and Cytosine can only join with Guanine. Since this base pairing is specific, if one knows the sequence of bases a long one strand of the DNA one will also know the strand of the DNA one will also know the sequence along the complimentary strand.…

* Maurice Wilkins – was Rosalind Franklin’s partner in X-ray crystallography and played an important role in providing Watson with the B-structure of DNA that Franklin and Gosling had made. Franklin, Gosling and Wilkins all worked at King’s College, London.…

Studying DNA can be extremely tedious and overwhelming. When Francis Crick and James Watson introduced the double helix, it was easy, for scientist, to comprehend the system, but it was rather difficult to understand how the DNA genes made proteins, which is the vital part. To fully grasp this concept scientist had to not only examine DNA, but they had to study RNA as well. The dispute, however, with DNA is that it actually is an elaborate and intricate code where these codes conceal its instructions.…
Maurice Wilkins has been one of the greatest contributors to DNA discovery, studying DNA molecules with the help of specialized microscopes, Wilkins and other scientists have given way to the discovery and deepening of the three-dimensional structure of DNA. Wilkin's ambition and desire for knowledge led him to investigate more into the aspects of DNA looking for its functioning and profound understanding. Along with Rosalind Franklin and James Watson, under an analysis and research project, DNA structure was observed through microscopes, spectrophotometers, and highly clear x-rays (DNA from the Begining.) In this way, the three scientists contributed to this great advance in DNA structural research, although, Wilkins is the scientist with the most valuable effort and Merits since he was the scientist who first started the DNA structure analyses project.…
The discovery of DNA began in the 1800s. The origin of DNA was discovered by Gregor Mendel the “Father of Genetics” in 1857 while he was performing an experiment of genetics with pea plants (Schwarzbuch, Smykal, Dostal, Jarkovska and Valova, 2014). Years few later, Johnann Friedrick Miescher began to follow Mendel studies and discovered the molecules of DNA. Moreover, the use of DNA in Forensic science did not receive a breakthrough until the 1950s. James Watson and Francis Crick solved the genetic puzzle and discovered the structure of DNA (Portin, 2014). James and Crick were the first to discover the structure of DNA after following the work of pioneers before them. They came to a ground-breaking conclusion about the structure of DNA in 1953 (Portin, 2014). In 1980s, the discovery of DNA testing…
One of the processes and methods I found was when Watson said Franklins X-ray patterns are getting better and better. Watson described them as getting more beautiful. You could see it as someone cooking, they start to get better at it after practice. Another analogy could be playing the piano, in the beginning you are not very good and you do not know much, but later on after you practice you start to get better. As the X-ray patterns kept improving, it helped Watson and Crick create the first DNA model. It helped them because the details of the X-ray got better so Watson and Crick was able to examine the hard to see stuff with ease. Also through the X-ray patterns it showed that the structure of DNA was helical. Watson was the one to see it was helical. This showed the cooperation of scientists.…
