2.6 Structure DNA and RNA: Elucidation of DNA Structure

Understanding that:

- Models are important in visually representing shapes and structures in the real world
- Watson and Crick used a model to represent the shape of the DNA helix
- DNA is made of two anti-parallel strands of nucleotides, each linked to the other strand nucleotide through hydrogen bonds due to complementary base pairings
