But their work was believed to be only possible through the discoveries by others, such as Raymond Gosling, Alexander Strokes and Herbert Wilson.

Answer 2

Rosalind Franklin developed images of the structure of DNA using X-ray crystallography. That data aided James Watson and Francis Crick in determining the precise structure which was described in their 1953 article in Nature, called "A Structure for Deoxyribose Nucleic Acid."

Answer 3

The discovery of the double helix structure of DNA was made by James Watson and Francis Crick in 1953. They proposed this model based on X-ray diffraction data collected by Rosalind Franklin and Maurice Wilkins.

Answer 4

James Watson and Francis Crick, but Maurice Wilkins gave them the idea of the double helix in DNA.

Answer 5

Answer 6

Watson and crick
