In dna there are 4 strands which join each part of the dna together, these are t and a , and g and c each one of these contains 200-3000 atoms depending on wether it dna or mrna
Normallythere are twostrands (Hence the name double-helix)
The DNA double helix contains two coiled biopolymer strands. The double helix was discovered by James Watson and Francis Crick.
There are two strands of DNA in a DNA double helix, each consisting of many nucleotide subunits. They are like building blocks that make up the DNA molecule, which would then be like a block tower. A 'strand of nucleotides' as you put it would basically be a DNA molecule (if they are deoxyribose nucleotides) or if they are ribose nucleotides, they would be a RNA molecule. DNA can come in double stranded helices (most of the time) or can be single stranded (as in some viruses).
DNA is made of two strands (chains) of DNA nucleotides that are twisted, forming a double helix, often compared to a twisted ladder. The two strands are held together by hydrogen bonds between the nitrogen bases.
During DNA replication, the enzyme DNA polymerase catalyses the formation of new strands of DNA, using the old strands as models. DNA has a double-helix structure, with two strands forming each helix. Each strand is made up of DNA nucleotides, with the genetic information encoded in the sequence of different nucleotides (different nucleotides are distinguished by molecules called 'bases' attached to them, so the sequence of nucleotides is known as the 'base sequence'). The base sequence of one strand is complementary to that of its' neighbour - the base A binds with T, and C with G, so if one strand had the sequence ATTACA, the base sequence of the complementary strand would be TAATGT. When DNA polymerase creates a new DNA strand, it does so by matching nucleotides to the base sequence of one of the strands - the template strand. New nucleotides are brought in, which match the template in a complementary fashion (ie. A-T, C-G), and join to become one new strand. This new strand is complementary to the template.

DNA replication simply means that DNA will split the double helix in two and refill its self. which then will make two of the same DNA strands.
Covalent bonds. Hydrogen bonds join together the two nucleic bases on the nucleotides to make the double helix.

individual nucleotides make up the long strands of DNA.
A DNA molecule is composed of two strands of nucleotides.
Watson and Crick were the first to figure out the shape of DNA, which turns out to be a double helix. They did not make it, they observed it.
the double helix refers to the SHAPE OF A DNA MOLECULE!!! It isn't that hard of a connection to make.
