Hydrogen bonds are found in DNA?
yes, hydrogen bonds are what connects the double helix together. hydrogen bonds for between the nitrogen bases on each DNA strand. nitrogen bases are: - Cytosine (C) - Thymine (T) - Guanine (G) - Adenins (A)
What is group of beads called?
A group of beads is commonly referred to as a strand. Individual beads are linked together on a strand to form jewelry or decorative pieces.
Is DNA a single strand of nucleotides?
No, DNA, from difference with the RNA, is a double strand of nucleotides. DNA, double strand (hence the double helix nickname). RNA, single strand.
What does semi-conservative men in regard to DNA replication?
It means when the DNA is unzipped into two strands each strand serves as a template for the synthesis of another new strand. So, when the strands come back together in the double helix one strand is an old strand and one is a new strand with you now have double the DNA you started with; four strands in all.
Which type of chemical bonding holds the two strands of DNA together in the double helix?
When two strands of DNA that have exactly complementary base pairing (Adenine bonds with only Thymine, and Cytosine with Guanine) the base forms a hydrogen bond to the base on the opposite strand, only if the base pairing is complementary. So, in short the double helix form is held together by hydrogen bonds between the bases present on the strand. This means as the two strands are split apart, a new complimentary strand is formed against each, resulting in two identical double helices where there was just one before. It is by this means that the instructions for the code of life are copied and passed on.
What holds one strand against the other in the double helix?
Hydrogen bonds between nitrogen and hydrogen accross the covalent bonds involving a free pair of electrons
How are the strands held together in the double helix?
On a single strand of DNA the nucleotides are held together by covalent bonding between the phosphate group bonded to the 5' end of the deoxyribose, which bonds to another deoxyribose molecule attached to the next nucleotide on the strand at the 3' end of the sugar. This is what holds together a single strand. When two strands of DNA that have exactly complementary base pairing (Adenine bonds with only Thymine, and Cytosine with Guanine) the base forms a hydrogen bond to the base on the opposite strand, only if the base pairing is complementary. So, in short the double helix form is held together by hydrogen bonds between the bases present on the strand.
What shape is a DNA strand?
A DNA strand is shaped like a 'double helix'.
What are the ribosomes linked togetherby a single strand of mRNA called?
polysomes or polyribosomes
What is Watson and Crick's DNA model?
DNA is a double helix made of two strands linked together with hydrogen bonds.
What are the two single strands of DNA?
The strand used as a template for mRNA during transcription is called the antisense strand. The DNA strand not used as a template is called the sense strand.Read more: What_are_the_two_DNA_strands
