Hydrogen bonds
Helicase
DNA strands are held together by hydrogen bonds that form between the nitrogen bases of both strands.
cytosine and guanine form three hydrogen bonds between them
Hydrogen bonds (two between adenine and thymine, and three between guanine and cytosine).
Hydrogen bonds hold the DNA bases together. There are three bonds between Guanine and Cytosine, and two bonds between Adenine and Thymine.
Hydrogen Bonds
Bases in DNA are linked through hydrogen bonds. There are two hydrogen bonds between Adenine and Thymine There are three hydrogen bonds between Guanine and Cytosine

The 'steps' or 'rungs' of the DNA 'ladder' are complimentary pairs of bases bonded by hydrogen bonds. The bases are Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine and Guanine. Adenine always bonds to Thymine and Cytosine always bonds to Guanine.

your teacher will probably accept hydrogen bonds, however it is more of an attraction not a physical bond
Complementary bases in DNA are held together via hydrogen bonds. Between G and C there are three hydrogen bonds and between A and T there are two hydrogen bonds.
Hydrogen bonds (H-bonds) are broken between the nitrogenous bases when the two strands of DNA separate. These bonds are not as strong as the covalent bonds holding together the sugar and phosphate in the backbone, so the H-bonds break first.
