The DNA molecule is anti-parallel. This is because the two strands are the opposite of one another, such that if one strand has the base sequence ATC, the opposite strand would have the base sequence TAG.

When completed each DNA molecule formed is half?
A DNA molecule in half is called DA molecule.
Is DNA hydrophilic molecule?
Dna has a hydrophilic and hydrophobic side, also you have to remember that DNA is a polar molecule
What molecule catalyzes covalent bond formation between DNA?
DNA ligase
What is a single helix molecule?
A DNA molecule has the shape of a double-stranded helix.
What molecule are the chromosomes made of?
DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid)
Is DNA antiparallel?
yes
Are Single stranded DNA molecules are said to be antiparallel when they lined up next to each other but oriented in opposite directions?
Yes. Technically they need to be two individual strands of a double-stranded molecule and not single-stranded molecules in order to be called antiparallel.
Are DNA strands oriented antiparallel to each other?
Yes.
When constructing the DNA molecule what did you notice about the orientation the two strands?
No idea. Biologers
What are a purine and a pyrimidine that are capable of hydrogen bonding to form the rung structure of DNA called?

A characteristic of a DNA molecule that is not a characteristic of a protein molecule is that the DNA molecule?
A characteristic of a DNA molecule that is not characteristic of a protein molecule is that the DNA molecule can replicate itself.
The sugar-phosphate backbones of the DNA double helix are oriendted in opposite directions this commonly referred to at the?
Antiparallel
Is a DNA strand the same as a DNA molecule?
The DNA molecule is composed of two DNA strands.
What does antiparallel mean?
Anti-parallel means the sides of the DNA double helix.

antiparallel
