Document Summary
X-ray photographs of dna, her photo 51 was taken by wilkins, shown to. Watson soon thereafter determines the structure of dna with. Franklin later works on the tobacco mosaic virus (the first virus to be. She dies due to ovarian cancer two years later at the age of 38 discovered) and the polio virus. Until recently, her contributions to our understanding of life went unnoticed. Dna replication the processes by which dna makes a copy of itself. Dna replication occurs in the cell nucleus. Each copy has a parent strand (old strand) and a daughter strand (the new strand) This is referred to as a semi-conservation replication. Each parent strand in referred to as the dna templet . Dna can only replicate itself and synthesize proteins from the 5" to the 3" end (no living organism can go 3" to 5") Get mutations through (mistakes in dna) environmental insults. Rna primer gets lagging strain reading to replicate.
