What was known before Franklin and Wilkins conducted their studies of DNA? Select three options. DNA is found in the nucleus of a cell.
The human genetic code is made of 50,000 genes.
Organisms store and transmit genetic information.
DNA has a double-helix structure.
Cells contain protein molecules.

The correct answer will be-

  1. DNA is found in the nucleus of a cell

   2. Organisms store and transmit genetic information

   3. Cells contain protein molecules.

Explanation:

The study of DNA started much before the discoveries of Rosalind Franklin and Maurice Wilkins.

Nucleus of cell was discovered by Robert Brown in 1831 but the material present inside the nucleus called "nuclein" (DNA) came from the studies of Johann Friedrich Miescher in 1869.

Proteins as a constituent of cell were discovered by the experimental analysis of Gerhardus Johannes Mulder in 1837.

DNA as a genetic material came from the experimental studies of Frederick Griffith in 1928, Oswald Avery, Maclyn McCarty, and Colin MacLeod in 1944, and Hershey and Chase in 1952.

Franklin and Maurice Wilkins are known for their work on the the structure of DNA as they were able to produce high-resolution X-ray photographs of DNA fibres called Photo 51 in 1952 using X-ray diffraction technique. By 1953 Franklin concluded concluded that DNA shows helical structure with phosphates on outer side.

Thus, 1. DNA is found in the nucleus of a cell

        2. Organisms store and transmit genetic information

        3. Cells contain protein molecules.

            are the correct options.

Hope this helps have a good day :>

for  example, forests have higher evapotranspiration than other ecosystems,  such  as grasslands, because of their deeper roots and greater leaf area. thus forests have a net moistening effect on the atmosphere and become a moisture source for downwind ecosystems.
