Brief Explanations
- Rosalind Franklin: Her X - ray diffraction images of DNA (like Photo 51) were crucial for Watson and Crick to determine the double - helix structure of DNA.
- Friedrich Miescher: He discovered nucleic acids (the material from which DNA is made), laying the foundation for understanding genetic material.
- Oswald Avery: His work showed that DNA, not protein, is the genetic material, which was an important step in the understanding of DNA's role before Watson and Crick's discovery of the structure.
