A
Rosalind Franklin
B
Linnus Pauling
C
Fredrick Griffeth
D
Martha Chase
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Taken in 1952, this image is the first X-ray picture of DNA, which led to the discovery of its molecular structure by Watson and Crick. Created by Rosalind Franklin using a technique called X-ray crystallography, it revealed the helical shape of the DNA molecule.

Detailed explanation-2: -Rosalind Franklin’s X-ray diffraction patterns of DNA molecules rendered the important clue that DNA has the structure of a double helix. The most famous X-ray photograph, Photo 51, is still printed in most Biology textbooks.
