Three ideas, one tube
Biology · Molecular genetics
An explainer film in four chapters: three ideas for how DNA copies itself, and one tube that decides between them. The Meselson–Stahl experiment, the machinery that builds new strands, and the problem at the end of every chromosome. Pause anywhere and ask.
