Who are Watson and Crick?
200
Sugar in DNA.
What is deoxyribose?
200
The chromatin forms these structures which replicate and separate during cell division. They are made of strands of DNA that are tightly would around proteins.
What are chromosomes?
300
Cytosine pairs with this nitrogen base.
What is guanine?

The base that pairs with adenine.
What is thymine?
300
Noticed that amount of cytosine present always equaled the amount of guanine present and that the amount of adenine present always equaled the amount of thymine present in a DNA sample.
