Which statement best describes how Watson and Crick's model used other scientists' work to create a model of DNA?

Rosalind Franklin’s X-ray diffraction images of DNA provided evidence that its structure was helical, helping Watson and Crick build their double-helix model. Chargaff’s rules concerned the proportions of DNA bases, not ribose sugar. The other choices also misstate what the cited scientists’ work established.
