Question

from their examination of tge structure of DNA what did watson and crick infer about the probable mechanism of DNA replication, coding capability and mutation?​

Answer 1

Inference of Watson and Crick on DNA replication:

They concluded that each of the DNA strand is a helix that act as templates during DNA replication leading to new daughter DNA molecules, which are complementary to parental strand.

Inference on coding capability:

During transcription, the genetic information in the DNA strand is coded to mRNA as complementary bases.

Inference on mutation:

Any changes in the nucleotide sequences leads to corresponding alteration in amino acid sequence of specific protein thus conforming the validity of genetic code.
