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.

Which of these cells of the dermal tissue of plants prevent water loss and control gas exchange?
masha68 [24]
The answer is guard cells. 
Guard cells are cells surrounding each stoma. They help regulate the rate of transpiration by opening and closing the stomata. They are specialized cells in the epidermis of leaves, stems and other organs that are used to control gas exchange. They are produced in pairs with a gap between them that forms a stomatal pore (stoma).

A word for the first settlements, formed when humans began to domesticate plants and animals
Tamiku [17]
<span>"Village" is the term used to refer to the first settlements formed as humans began domesticating plants and animals.

A village is comprised of a clustered human settlement or community, with a few hundred to a few thousand people. It is typically smaller than a town but larger than a hamlet and is usually a permanent settlement, with dwellings spaced closely from each other. The surrounding lands were usually farmed, but in the case of traditional fishing villages, they were located adjacent to fishing grounds as well. </span>
