What women are credited with helping to discover the structure of DNA?
Rosalind Franklin was an expert in x-ray crystallography who is famous for her x-ray diffraction images of DNA. Watson and Crick, who are commonly credited with the discovery of the structure of DNA, have admitted that Franklin's data played an integral part in their discovery of the double helix model of DNA. Watson, Crick, and Wilkins jointly received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1962 but since this was after Franklin's death, it is often assumed that Franklin would have also shared the prize is she had lived.
Who were the two scientists who were credited for the shape of the DNA molecule?
Francis Crick and James Watson worked out that DNA was arranged in a double-helix shape. They were awarded the Nobel prize for their discovery. Although James Watson and Francis Crick are credited (and won the Nobel Prize) for discovering the shape and structure of DNA, Rosalind Franklin had a large part in their "discovery," with her high quality x-ray crystallography images. They secretly used her x-ray diffraction pictures to put the pieces together (given their own inaccurate models) and Watson even went as far as to defame Rosalind as the vicious "Rosy." So, in truth, Rosalind Franklin and James Watson and Francis Crick (and perhaps Rosalind's partner, Maurice Wilkins) discovered the shape of DNA. Watson, Crick, and Wilkins jointly received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1962 but since this was after Franklin's death, it is often assumed that Franklin would have also shared the prize if she had lived.
Who is credited for the discovery of the structure of DNA?
Francis Crick and James WatsonDNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) appears likely to have evolved from the much simpler molecule, RNA. Of course, DNA was not the only possible direction in which evolution could have taken, but it has proven to be a very successful one.DNA was first discovered back in 1869 by Johann Friedrich Miescher. The fundamental structure of DNA was discovered by James Watson and Francis Crick, although many people believe that Rosalind Franklin also played a large role in their research.Simple Answer:James Watson and Francis Crick are credited with the first correct double-helix model of DNA structure published in 1953 in the journal Nature.More Complicated:Credit for the research leading to the discovery of the structure of DNA is controversial. The publication by Watson and Crick was based on an x-ray image taken by Rosalind Franklin and Raymond Gosling in May 1952. A critical problem in an earlier model was corrected based on private communications from Erwin Chargaff.Several critical publications occurred at almost the same time. A separate paper by Franklin and Gosling's provided the X-ray diffraction data and original analysis method for the Watson and Crick model. Maurice Wilkins also published X-ray patterns also supporting a double-helix molecular model of DNA.Watson, Crick, and Wilkins jointly received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1962 but since this was after Franklin's death, it is often assumed that Franklin would have also shared the prize is she had lived.Simple Answer:James Watson and Francis Crick are credited with the first correct double-helix model of DNA structure published in 1953 in the journal Nature.More Complicated:Credit for the research leading to the discovery of the structure of DNA is controversial.

Actually, a lady X-ray crystallographer got 'er done before they did but that's another story.Watson and Crick
Describe the two pieces of information from other scientists that enabled James Watson and Francis Crick to discover the double-helical structure of DNA?
Before Watson and Crick could discover the shape of DNA, Swiss chemist Friedrich Miescher had to discover DNA in the first place. Later, Phoebus Levene and Erwin Chargaff would begin investigating the structure of DNA.
What led up to the discovery of DNA?
It was discovered in Cambridge at England. Well when you ask why, I'd say because whoever discovered it would make one of the most famous and never forgotten breakthroughs in science history. When Watson and Crick were working with hemoglobin and learned there was this competition on finding DNA going on, they decided to partake in it, with the help of acquiring vital info from Franklin thanks to WIlkins help, they became the first people to discover DNA! =) your welcome
How old is Francis Crick?
Francis Crick was born on June 8, 1916 and died on July 28, 2004. Francis Crick would have been 88 years old at the time of death or 99 years old today.
What is the name of the museum named after francis crick?
The name would be the Crick Museum since it was named after him. Your answer was in your question.
What two scienctists established the structure of DNA?
That would be James Watson and Francis Crick.
What would our world be without francis crick?
Apart from the poor grammar of the question, the easy answer is "Not much different had he not existed!" as someone else would have elucidated the structure of DNA etc, but had he/Christof Koch found the answer to the question of 'Consciousness', the world might just be a slightly different place! I suspect you will NOT understand this answer?
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
