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.

What are the two main sections of the DNA molecule?

The two main sections of the DNA molecule are the sugar-phosphate backbone and the nitrogenous bases. The sugar-phosphate backbone consists of alternating sugar and phosphate molecules that form the structural backbone of the DNA molecule. The nitrogenous bases (adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine) are connected to the sugar molecules and form the internal structure of the DNA molecule through complementary base pairing.


What molecules make up the the sides of a DNA molecule?

The sides of a DNA molecule are made up of alternating deoxyribose sugar and phosphate molecules, linked together by phosphodiester bonds. This forms the backbone of the DNA double helix, with the nitrogenous bases projecting inward towards each other.
