DNA was discovered in 1869, but its structure and role as the genetic material was not understood until later breakthroughs in the 20th century. In 1953, Watson and Crick published their discovery of the double helix structure of DNA, with two strands coiled around each other and connected through complementary base pairing of adenine and thymine and cytosine and guanine. This breakthrough explained DNA's role in inheritance and provided the foundation for modern genetics and molecular biology.

Lesson 13 The DNA molecule
In 1952, Rosalind Franklin obtained a photograph of DNA known as Photograph 51 that helped prove its double helix structure. In 1953, James Watson and Francis Crick described the double helix structure of DNA in the journal Nature. The DNA molecule contains nucleotides with nitrogenous bases that form two antiparallel and complementary strands that twist together in the shape of a double helix.
The Discovery of DNA
Rosalind Franklin was an expert in using X-ray crystallography techniques to study DNA structure. Her clear images of DNA, including photograph 51, provided essential information about DNA's structure. Crick and Watson obtained Franklin's data from Wilkins and used it to confirm their ideas about DNA's double-helix structure. Though her work was instrumental in the discovery, Franklin was not recognized at the time since Watson's memoir disparaged her and she had died before the 1962 Nobel Prize was awarded to Crick, Watson, and Wilkins for discovering the structure of DNA.
DNA History & Structure
The document discusses the history and structure of DNA. It describes how DNA was discovered to be the genetic material through experiments in the 1800s and 1900s. Key figures like Watson, Crick, Franklin and Chargaff contributed to determining DNA's double helix structure and the rules of base pairing between A-T and G-C. The structure forms a spiral with the bases on the inside and a sugar-phosphate backbone on the outside, held together by hydrogen bonds between the paired bases.
Dna History And Replication Review
1. During DNA replication, the two strands of the DNA double helix separate and each strand serves as a template for assembling a new complementary strand. This process is semi-conservative, resulting in two double helices each with one original strand and one new strand.
2. Watson and Crick discovered that DNA has a double helix structure with bases pairing across the strands. This explained Chargaff's rules and allowed DNA to replicate semiconservatively using each strand as a template.
3. DNA replication involves many enzymes that proofread the DNA and repair any errors to maintain high-fidelity copying of the genetic material from one cell to the next.
DNA: BOOK OF LIFE
DNA is a double-helix macromolecule that contains genetic material found in the nuclei and mitochondria of living cells. It determines the characteristics of organisms and is composed of nucleotides with phosphate, sugar, and nitrogen bases. James Watson and Francis Crick discovered the double helix structure of DNA in the 1950s, which consists of two strands coiled around each other with complementary nucleotide base pairs of adenine bonding with thymine and cytosine bonding with guanine. DNA contains the entire set of genetic instructions for building and maintaining organisms.
Rosalind elsie franklin
Rosalind Franklin was a British biophysicist and X-ray crystallographer who made several important contributions to the understanding of DNA structure. She discovered that DNA could crystallize into two different forms, A and B, and developed techniques to separate these forms. Her most important contribution was using X-ray diffraction images to show that DNA has a double helix structure. If not for her early death from cancer, she likely would have received a Nobel Prize for her work determining the structure of DNA.
DNA discovery & Structure 8.1 & 8.2
The document outlines the major discoveries in DNA research from 1910 to 1953. It begins with Thomas Morgan's confirmation in 1910 that chromosomes are the molecules of inheritance. Important early experiments were conducted by Griffith in 1928 and Avery in 1944 suggesting DNA was the molecule of inheritance. In 1950, Chargaff determined purine and pyrimidine amounts were equal in DNA strands. Franklin photographed DNA in 1952 providing evidence it was a double strand. Watson and Crick used this photo and Chargaff's rules to develop their 1953 double helix model of DNA's structure.
SHORT HISTORY OF DNA
DNA is a very important fact of life. And the evolution of the DNA is an very important thing to studied in various where the biology links. In this presentation, the history of the DNA is presented in a short manner.

Women have historically faced barriers to entering science fields. While there were individual pioneers, real progress began with first-wave feminism in the 19th century. The document then discusses several important female scientists throughout history and their contributions despite facing discrimination. It notes that while women were few in number historically, they have made important discoveries and helped drive change by participating in their fields.
Dna history
Gregor Mendel is considered the founder of modern genetics. In the 1850s and 1860s, he conducted experiments breeding pea plants that established the fundamental laws of inheritance now known as Mendelian inheritance. His work was not widely recognized until after his death. Later discoveries identified DNA as the molecule that carries genetic information in cells and organisms. Rosalind Franklin's X-ray crystallography work in the 1950s provided key evidence of DNA's helical structure, which Watson and Crick then used to propose their famous double helix model of DNA in 1953.
James chadwick
Chadwick discovered a new particle in the nucleus called the neutron through experiments bombarding various elements with alpha particles. The neutron was predicted by Majorana due to its lack of an electrical charge, allowing it to penetrate nuclei without overcoming electromagnetic repulsion like protons. Using Rutherford's zinc shield technique, Chadwick determined neutrons could enter even the heaviest element nuclei, helping establish the neutron as a key part of the nuclear model and defining the atom's mass.

The story of DNA modified by Karobi Moitra
The document discusses the discovery of the structure of DNA. In 1953, James Watson and Francis Crick determined that DNA consists of two strands coiled around each other in a double helix formation. They were able to deduce this structure based on the work of Rosalind Franklin and Maurice Wilkins. Franklin's X-ray diffraction images, especially her Photo 51, provided key evidence of DNA's structure without which Watson and Crick's discovery would not have been possible. While all four scientists contributed to the discovery, only Watson, Crick, and Wilkins received a Nobel Prize in 1962 for their work.
DNA double helix
DNA has a double helical structure that is twisted into a spiral staircase shape. It consists of two strands that are anti-parallel to each other and wrapped around a central axis. Rosalind Franklin discovered the two forms of DNA structure through X-ray diffraction images in 1951. That same year, James Watson and Francis Crick used Franklin's data as well as the "model building" approach to determine that DNA has a double helix structure with the bases pairing in the interior and the phosphate backbones on the exterior. Their discovery, along with the contributions of Maurice Wilkins and Rosalind Franklin, won them the 1962 Nobel Prize. DNA provides instructions for building and maintaining all living organisms through its primary, secondary, and
Ch 16: The Molecular Basis of Inheritance
DNA is the genetic material that is faithfully replicated and passed from parents to offspring. James Watson and Francis Crick discovered the double helix structure of DNA in 1953, which explained how DNA could store and replicate the instructions for making organisms. Their model showed that DNA consists of two strands coiled around each other, with nucleotides on the strands bonded together through base pairing with adenine bonding only to thymine and guanine only to cytosine. This allows each strand to serve as a template for duplicating the other, explaining DNA's role in inheritance and allowing organisms to pass genetic information between generations.

1306 photosynthesis
Photosynthesis occurs in two stages - the light-dependent reactions and the light-independent reactions. In the light-dependent reactions, photons from sunlight are absorbed by photosystems in the chloroplast and used to convert ADP to ATP and NADP+ to NADPH. In the light-independent reactions, also called the Calvin cycle, carbon dioxide is fixed into organic carbohydrates like glucose using the ATP and NADPH produced in the light reactions. Plants use the glucose for energy and building other organic molecules. Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are ancient and complementary pathways that allow organisms to harness energy from sunlight or food.
Cellular respiration

Species interactions
Species interact through competition for resources and by partitioning resources to avoid competition. Robert MacArthur's 1958 work on niche theory and competitive exclusion showed that closely related species competing for the same resources cannot stably coexist over the long term. Species also interact through coevolution, where evolutionary changes in one species lead to reciprocal evolutionary changes in another species through their ecological relationship and interaction.
Population ecology
This document provides an overview of key concepts in population ecology, including:
- Defining populations and population ecology
- Describing different population distribution patterns and survivorship curves
- Comparing exponential and logistic growth models and the concept of carrying capacity
- Distinguishing between density-dependent and density-independent factors
- Contrasting r-selected and K-selected life history strategies
- Discussing factors that influence population size such as birth and death rates
Animal behavior part 2
Many animal behaviors improve survival and reproductive success. Behaviors like predator avoidance, finding food and shelter, and parental care help animals survive and produce offspring. Living in groups provides benefits like improved foraging, protection from predators and weather, but also comes with costs like competition and disease spread. Within groups, behaviors can appear altruistic if they help spread an individual's indirect genes. Some animals also display diverse mating strategies, like territorial males, sneaky males that impersonate females, and females that mate with multiple partners to maximize reproductive success.
Ecology and animal behavior
This document discusses key concepts and learning objectives related to ecology, animal behavior, and behavioral adaptations. It defines important terms like ecology, behavior, altruism, and kin selection. It explains that behavior can evolve through natural selection to improve an animal's survival and fitness. Behaviors can be innate or learned, and are influenced by both genetics and environment. Examples of behaviors that enhance survival include predator avoidance, optimal foraging strategies, and territorial behaviors. Social behaviors like mating systems and parental care also promote reproductive success.
Animalia
This document discusses the classification of animals in the kingdom Animalia. It outlines the key characteristics biologists use to classify animals, including specialized tissues, body symmetry, germ layers, embryonic development, and DNA. Animals are classified into major groups including deuterostomes, protostomes, radiata, and parazoa based on these traits. The document specifically focuses on 10 animal phyla that will be covered in lecture, including chordates, echinoderms, arthropods, roundworms, annelids, mollusks, flatworms, cnidarians, sponges, and bacteria and archaea as outgroups.
Classification
This document provides an overview of biological classification systems and taxonomy. It defines key terms like taxonomy, phylogeny, cladistics, and discusses how organisms are organized into a taxonomic hierarchy from domain to species. Cladograms are introduced as a way to visually represent evolutionary relationships between species and identify monophyletic, paraphyletic, and polyphyletic groups. The document also discusses how scientists use biological data and characteristics to reconstruct phylogenies and evolutionary trees.

In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
