In the 1950s, when watson and crick were working on their model of dna, which concepts were well accepted by the scientific community?

In the 1950s, Both Watson and Crick were working on the composition of DNA, that is, the molecule that comprises the hereditary information for cells. The discovery of the double-helix, and the twisted ladder composition of DNA, by Watson and Crick, signified a landmark in the field of science and paved the path for the origination of modern molecular biology.  

However, when Watson and Crick were working on DNA model, some of the concepts were well accepted by the scientific community like the chromosomes are formed of nucleic acid and protein, chromosomes are found in the nucleus, and genes are located on the chromosomes.  

uh two lol

it takes hundreds of years to become stable.

if you have another question lmk.
