Be sure to list all team members" names on this sheet! In 1953 francis crick and james watson revolutionized the study of biology with a series of papers published in nature describing the structure of dna and suggesting a possible mechanism for the replication of dna. Nevertheless, their ground-breaking model was built upon the work of others. Answer the following questions about the work that made watson and. In 3-4 sentences, describe one experiment that led scientists to believe that dna was the molecule responsible for carrying genetic information.
