Yes, I agree that the discovery of DNA model by Watson and Crick took help from the work of many other scientists which were not credited with the discovery as much as both of them were credited.

Explanation:

One of the major breakthroughs made in the discovery of DNA structure was the work of a female scientist, Rosalind Franklin who did X-ray crystallography according to which DNA was helical in shape. Watson and Crick took strong support from this theory and proved that DNA was helical in shape. However, she was a perfectionist and she had not published her work yet while the Watson and Crick were fast enough to do so. Before that Watson and Crick while working independently formulated incorrect DNA models in which bases were placed outside while phosphate groups were outside. However, Rosalind Franklin's work was of substantial help to both of them. There was another colleagues of Franklin, Maurice Wilkins who was working with Franklin in doing X-ray studies. n 1962 Watson, Crick, and Maurice Wilkins were jointly honored with the Nobel Prize in medicine for their model of DNA in 1953 but she was not nominated for Nobel price because it could only be shared by three scientists maximum and Franklin was died by that time too.

Therefore, i think it was not fair with Franklin that she never received the credit of the work which she did tirelessly and which became basis of modern DNA model.

Hope it helps!

Answer from: Quest

answer: - b cells

explanation: -

there are many types of white blood cells present in our body. one such class of white blood cells are the lymphocytes. the b cells belong to the lymphocyte class of wbcs. the b cells perform their action against the pathogen by producing specialised proteins called as antibodies. these antibodies are produced as and when the b cells encounter pathogens in response to the antigens present on the surface of the pathogen. these antibodies bind to the antigens present on the pathogen and then, target them for destruction by other cells of the immune system.

so, the b cells mediate their action by identifying the antigens present on the surface of the pathogens and then producing antibodies in return to mediate its effect.

Assume that you are interested in separating short (200-400 bp) dna molecules from a pool of longer molecules in the 10,000-20,000 nucleotide range. you have two recipes for making your polyacrylamide gels: one recipe uses 1.5 percent agarose and would be considered a “hard gel,” while the other uses 0.5 percent agarose and would be considered a loose gel. which gel should you use to separate the short (200-400 bp) dna molecules from a pool of longer molecules in the 10,000-20,000 nucleotide range?
