In the 1950s, when watson and crick were working on their model of dna, which concepts were well accepted by the scientific community?

Wilkins and FranklinName: Maurice Wilkins and Rosalind Franklin
Date: 1951
Description: 
- Wilkins was working with a technique called X-ray diffraction: a technique that involved aiming X rays at the DNA molecule
- Franklin took the now famous Photo 51 and collected data eventually used by Watson and Crick
- Photo 51 indicated that DNA was a double helix, or twisted ladder shape, formed by two strands of nucleotides twisted around each other
- The specific structure of the DNA double helix was determined later by Watson and Crick when they used Franklin's data and other mathematical data
