    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_Structure_of...

    t. e. " Molecular Structure of Nucleic Acids: A Structure for Deoxyribose Nucleic Acid " was the first article published to describe the discovery of the double helix structure of DNA, using X-ray diffraction and the mathematics of a helix transform. It was published by Francis Crick and James D. Watson in the scientific journal Nature on pages ...

  4. Learning theory (education) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Learning_theory_(education)

    Learning theory describes how students receive, process, and retain knowledge during learning. Cognitive, emotional, and environmental influences, as well as prior experience, all play a part in how understanding, or a worldview, is acquired or changed and knowledge and skills retained. [1][2] Behaviorists look at learning as an aspect of ...

  5. Central dogma of molecular biology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_dogma_of_molecular...

    A second version of the central dogma is popular but incorrect. This is the simplistic DNA → RNA → protein pathway published by James Watson in the first edition of The Molecular Biology of the Gene (1965). Watson's version differs from Crick's because Watson describes a two-step (DNA → RNA and RNA → protein) process as the central ...

    Edward Hitchcock's fold-out paleontological chart in his 1840 Elementary Geology. Although tree-like diagrams have long been used to organise knowledge, and although branching diagrams known as claves ("keys") were omnipresent in eighteenth-century natural history, it appears that the earliest tree diagram of natural order was the 1801 "Arbre botanique" (Botanical Tree) of the French ...

    Chester Ittner Bliss. Tan Jiazhen. Signature. Thomas Hunt Morgan (September 25, 1866 – December 4, 1945) [2] was an American evolutionary biologist, geneticist, embryologist, and science author who won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1933 for discoveries elucidating the role that the chromosome plays in heredity.

  8. Sliding filament theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sliding_filament_theory

    Cross-bridge theory states that actin and myosin form a protein complex (classically called actomyosin) by attachment of myosin head on the actin filament, thereby forming a sort of cross-bridge between the two filaments. The sliding filament theory is a widely accepted explanation of the mechanism that underlies muscle contraction.

  9. Boveri–Sutton chromosome theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boveri–Sutton_chromosome...

    The Boveri–Sutton chromosome theory (also known as the chromosome theory of inheritance or the Sutton–Boveri theory) is a fundamental unifying theory of genetics which identifies chromosomes as the carriers of genetic material. [1][2][3] It correctly explains the mechanism underlying the laws of Mendelian inheritance by identifying ...
