3. Watson and Crick determined that DNA reproduced by a ______ Watson-Crick_____________________ model, in which the daughter molecules contain _________ of the parent strands and _______ newly synthesized strand.

Respuesta :

Watson and Crick determined that DNA reproduced by a Semiconservative Watson-Crick model, in which the daughter molecules contain one of the parent strands and one newly synthesized strand.

  • According to Watson and Crick's theory, nitrogenous bases on opposing DNA strands form hydrogen bonds that hold the two strands of the double helix together.
  • Each pair of bases forms a flat "rung" on the ladder-like structure of the DNA molecule. Base pairs don't just consist of any arrangement of bases.
  • Watson and Crick proposed that DNA replicates in a "Semi-Conservative" way based on their understanding of the structure of DNA.
  • According to this idea, the DNA double helix's two strands unwind and split, with each "parent" strand acting as a template for the creation of a new "daughter" strand.
