Nucleobases (or nucleotide bases/nitrogenous bases/aglycones) provide the nucleotide structure necessary to form base pairs. The primary nucleobases are cytosine, guanine, adenine (DNA and RNA), thymine (DNA) and uracil (RNA), abbreviated as C, G, A, T, and U, respectively. They are usually simply called bases in genetics. Because A, G, C, and T appear in the DNA, these molecules are called DNA-bases; A, G, C, and U are called RNA-bases.

How many copies of a DNA molecules result from replications of a single DNA molecule?
Four.
How many copies of DNA molecules result from two replications of a single DNA molecule?
Four.
What do DNA molecules and its associated proteins coil to form a?
Chromatin
What are the characteristics of DNA that make it the most complex yet simple molecules in the known universe?
DNA is composed of four different base groups, which can form endless numbers of different sequences, which have the capacity to synthesize a wide variety of protein molecules, or to synthesize RNA which will synthesize protein molecules, and these protein molecules are the basis of all biochemistry; they form the catalysts and structural elements which create, regulate, and maintain all living organisms.
Four molecules of rungs in DNA what are they called?
they are adenine , guanine , thymine , cytosine ..
The ends of DNA molecules form structures called what?
Chromatin Threads
What pairs of molecules form the steps in the DNA molecule?
nitrogenous bases
How are DNA molecules joined together and coiled?
Using protein histones, the DNA coils to form nucleosomes, which further coils to form chromosomes.
What are the four DNA bases with its complementary base?
There are four nucleotides that combine together in DNA to form its two base pairs. Adenine (A) pairs with thymine (T). Cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G). When RNA transcribes these pairs from the original DNA molecules, uracil (U) pairs with adenine, replacing thymine.
The genetic information that is passed from a parent to its offspring is found in?
Most of the genetic information that is passed form a parent to its offspring is found in DNA molecules.
What are Four compounds that make up life?
Four basic molecules are Carbohydrates, Lipids, Protein, and DNA/RNA
Which organic molecules contain genetic information in the form if DNA or RNA?
All living things have DNA or rna
