Wilkins contributed to the discovery of the DNA molecule by producing high-quality X-ray diffraction images, which were crucial in identifying the structure of DNA. Franklin's work on X-ray diffraction data also helped in determining the helical structure of DNA and contributed to the understanding of its molecular structure along with Watson and Crick.
Watson and Crick's model of the DNA molecule showed that the double helix structure allowed for complementary base pairing between adenine and thymine, and between guanine and cytosine. This explained how DNA strands could replicate and pass on genetic information accurately.

well the dna molecule model was compared to Franklins
The work of Chargaff, Wilkins, and Franklin formed the basis for the discovery of the double-helix structure of DNA by Watson and Crick in 1953. Their research on the chemical composition and x-ray diffraction patterns of DNA provided crucial insights that helped in deciphering the structure of the DNA molecule.
DNA is a molecule so no.

He didn't. DNA was already known before Crick, Watson, Wilkins and Franklin discovered its chemical structure in the early 50s. Crick and Watson published in "Nature" in April of 1953.
Maurice Wilkins is famous for his work in the field of molecular biology, particularly for his contributions to the discovery of the double helical structure of DNA. He shared the 1962 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine with James Watson and Francis Crick for their groundbreaking work in this area.

Watson and Crick used the X-ray diffraction patterns to determine that DNA was a helical molecule. Withe the use of models, they built what we know as the DNA Double-Helix.
Francis Crick, James Watson and Maurice Wilkins received the Nobel prize in 1962 for their DNA elucidation contributions.
