Deoxyribose (Sugar) and a Phosphate
Deoxyribose (Sugar) and a Phosphate
Each DNA strand is made up of a backbone composed of alternating sugar and phosphate molecules, which are connected by covalent bonds. The nitrogenous bases (adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine) project inward from the backbone and pair up with complementary bases on the opposite strand through hydrogen bonding. This base pairing forms the "rungs" of the DNA ladder.
GGATCGA. Each base in the original DNA strand pairs with its complementary base (A with T and C with G) in the new strand during DNA replication.
After DNA replication, each new molecule has one strand of the original DNA molecule and the other strand is composed of new nucleic acids. This is due to the semi-conservative replication of DNA.

With a small piece of primer,and active polymerase(enzyme) it replicates the complementary strand of the DNA
During transcription, the mRNA strand is synthesized complementary to the DNA template strand. Given the DNA strand "GCA TAG," the corresponding mRNA strand would be "CUG AUC," where each DNA base pairs with its RNA complement (G with C, C with G, A with U, and T with A).
replicated DNA is made of one old strand and one new strand.
The replication is semiconservative. Each strand acts as a template for the synthesis of a new DNA molecule by the sequential addition of complementary base pairs, thereby generating a new DNA strand that is the complementary sequence to the parental DNA. Each daughter DNA molecule ends up with one of the original strands and one newly synthesized strand.
True, during DNA replication, the DNA molecule unwinds and each strand serves as a template for the synthesis of a new complementary strand. This results in two identical DNA molecules, each containing one original strand and one newly synthesized strand.
Each chromosome has a single strand of DNA.
DNA replication is semi-conservative. This means that each new DNA molecule has one original strand of DNA and one new strand of DNA.
