Which is the best example of a scientific discovery resulting from new technology?

The structure of DNA was determined using X-ray diffraction, a technology that produced images revealing how DNA is arranged. This makes choice C, the discovery of DNA’s structure from an X-ray image, the best example of a scientific discovery resulting from new technology. The electron microscope in choice B was developed after the discovery of atomic structure, so the technology followed that discovery rather than causing it.
