Question

T/F: Crick and Watson had to assume that the nucleotides in DNA were all linked together in chains, and using the same kind of bond.

Answer 1

The work of Rosalind Franklin and R.G. Gosling was important in demonstrating the helical nature of DNA.

Step-by-step explanation:

True. The work of Rosalind Franklin and R.G. Gosling was important in demonstrating the helical nature of DNA.

They used X-ray crystallography to produce an image of DNA, known as Photograph 51, which revealed the characteristic X-shaped pattern that indicates a helical structure. This image provided crucial evidence for Watson and Crick in developing their model of DNA as a double helix.
