support or refute the following claim using your knowledge and at least two pieces of evidence from the text. claim: erwin chargaffs contribution to understanding the structure of dna was the most important.

Explanation:

Answer:

Erwin Chargaff's contribution was significant but not the most important. Watson and Crick used his base - pairing rules (A=T, G=C) to build the DNA model. However, Rosalind Franklin's X - ray diffraction data was crucial for determining the helical structure. Also, the work of Maurice Wilkins in providing the data to Watson and Crick was essential.
