Watson and Crick already knew that the number of purines is always the same as pyrimidines.

The scientists that contribute to discovery of DNA and its complete structure:

•  Friedrich Miescher-was the first who found DNA inside the nucleus (first it was called nuclein) while he was trying to discover the protein components of leukocytes (1869)

• Phoebus Levene- was the first who discovered three major components of a nucleotide (1919)

• Erwin Chargaff –discovered that the total amount of purines (A + G) and the total amount of pyrimidines (C + T) are nearly equal (Chargaff’s rule) (1950)

• Rosalind Franklin and Maurice Wilkins, did an important X-ray crystallography work that contributed to Watson and Crick's discovery of double-helical model for the structure of DNA.

What is the advantage of having a folded inner membrane in the mitochondria
Aliun [14]

Okay so, the mitochondria are shaped perfectly to maximize their productivity. They are made of two membranes. The outer membrane covers the organelle and contains it like a skin. The inner membrane folds over many times and creates layered structures called cristae. The fluid contained in the mitochondria is called the matrix. The folding of the inner membrane increases the surface area inside the organelle. Since many of the chemical reactions happen on the inner membrane, the increased surface area creates more space for reactions to occur.

Hope that helps (:
