The APsolute Recap: Biology Edition - Scientists RecAP
Episode 28 recAPs some of the great scientific minds of history. Atoms are the building blocks of matter, with work by greats such as Dalton, Rutherford, and Bohr (1:08). Gregor Mendel is now renowned as the father of heredity, but began as a pea farmer (2:30). DNA was identified as the molecule of heredity by comparing chemical properties through experiments by Griffith, Avery, Hershey and Chase (3:28). You likely remember Watson and Crick’s double helix model, but what about Franklin and Chargaff? (4:30). No episode on scientists is complete without mentioning Charles Darwin and the theory of evolution by natural selection (5:37).
The Question of the Day asks (7:03) “What mainland South American country is closest to the Galapagos Islands? ”
