Guanine which binds with Cytosine, and Adenine which binds with Thymine.
The sugar molecule found in DNA nucleotides is called deoxyribose.

During DNA replication, the enzyme DNA polymerase adds new nucleotides to the 3' end of the growing DNA strand. This ensures that the number of base pairs in a DNA molecule increases from 3 to 5, as the new nucleotides are added in the 5' to 3' direction.
on the outsides there is phosphate and a sugar called dyoxiribose...spelling... and the insides are like rungs on a ladder, theres adenine which pairs up with thymine... and guanine which pairs up with cytosine
Hydrogen bonds are responsible for binding nucleotides on each strand of a DNA molecule. These bonds form between complementary base pairs: adenine (A) pairs with thymine (T) and guanine (G) pairs with cytosine (C).
Nucleotides Four nucleotides are needed to make a DNA molecule.
The number of base pairs formed by 8 DNA nucleotides is 8.
Thymine is one of the four possible bases which, when attached to a phosphate group and a molecule of deoxyribose, forms a nucleotide; nucleotides are the monomer units of DNA.
In a DNA molecule, guanine (G) pairs with cytosine (C), and adenine (A) pairs with thymine (T). If there are 15 guanine nucleotides, there must also be 15 cytosine nucleotides, making a total of 30 nucleotides accounted for. The remaining nucleotides consist of adenine and thymine, which must be equal in number; thus, if there are 30 nucleotides in total, there are 15 adenine and 15 thymine nucleotides. Therefore, the percentages are 30% guanine, 30% cytosine, and 20% each for adenine and thymine.
The number of nucleotides in a DNA sequence can vary, but in general, a human DNA molecule contains about 3 billion nucleotides.
RNA is not found in a DNA molecule. While DNA consists of the nucleotides adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine, RNA contains uracil instead of thymine. Additionally, the sugar in DNA is deoxyribose, whereas RNA contains ribose.
