In 1952, Rosalind Franklin produced an image of DNA that suggested it contained two strands twisted in a double helix with a phosphate backbone and bases inside. Franklin calculated the diameter of DNA, the distance between strands and bases, the angle of the helix, and the number of bases per coil.

Watson and Crick used this information to build and accurate model of DNA.

Rosalind Franklin was the one who pioneered the structure of DNA through his X-ray diffraction images at King's College. His failure to explain the double helix structure was the reason why Watson and Crick were the person who were accounted by the discovery. The huge model by Cirick and Watson proved the theory of Franklin who failed to give an evidence.

Verdich [7]

Answer:

B - Python predation has caused a trophic cascade that changed the mosquitoes' niche.

Explanation:

The passage infers that the predation by the Burmese pythons has reduced the population of the animals in Southern Florida thus making the Culex cedecei mosquito to have a reduced number of options to feed from. This is stressed when the author notes that these mosquitoes are now feeding on cotton rats which harbor the Everglades virus that also have the potentials of being transmitted to humans.

Summarily, the passage is saying that the invasion by the Burmese python has changed the niche of most animals including the mosquitoes in the Southern Florida's wild.
