It is possible that the structure of DNA (double helix) may not have been discovered. Rosalind Franklin is famous for her x-ray photographs of DNA which were later used by James Watson and Francis Crick to determine the helical structure of DNA.

What does Rosalind Franklin have to do with genetics?
Rosalind Franklin did the measurements using X-Rays that allowed James Watson and Franicis Crick to decipher the structure of DNA. Dr. Franklin probably would have shared the Noble Prize with Watson, Crick and Maurice Wilkins but she died before the prize was awarded but the Noble prize is not awarded posthumously. Without Franklin's work Watson and Crick would not have made their discovery.

Explain the contributions of chargaff Franklin Watson and crick to DNA?
Well Im in 7th grade and from what i know (Im in honors) that they did not discover the double helix but they made a model of it. But it was actually Rosland Franklins work! Its actually pretty intresting! I hope that helped. ADD: Watson and Crick used the work of several scientists in order to develop their model of DNA and suggest a method of replication. Watson, Crick, and Maurice Wilkins received a Nobel Prize for their work on the structure of DNA. Rosalind Franklin did not receive the Nobel Prize because she had died of cancer before the Nobel Prize was given. If she had been alive she would have more than likely shared in the Nobel Prize.
Who first determined the structure of dna?
ME!!! It would be nice if people would be serious about answering questions. Children of all ages come here to get help with homework and could use the CORRECT ANSWER which is: James Watson and Francis Crick in 1953. Sorry but your wrong. The real answer is not Wotson and Crick but is really Rosalind Franklin back in 1898. If I were you I would look in the textbook because this is confusing children who look for the correct answer but get stuck in a situation where there are two different answers, I wouldn't turn to the internet for help if I were you. You're smart. All you need to do is think. Now I sound like a motivational speaker.. :/ ~Soon to be motivational speaker :P
Where did James Watson do his work on the structureon DNA?
The Nobel Prize they won identifies their discovery of DNA's structure based on Rosalind Franklin's painstaking collaboration. Nobel Prizes are only awarded to living individuals, so if Franklin hadn't unfortunately died of ovarian cancer 4 years previously, the world would have been celebrating "Nobel winners Franklin, Watson & Crick" since their 1962 prize. A fourth individual, Maurice Wilkins, was also a part of the project and Nobel winner.
