The 'steps' on the 'DNA Ladder' are made up of the four nitrogenous bases, Cytosine, Guanine, Thymine, and Adenine, while the pairing bases (Adenine & Thymine, Cytosine & Guanine) are bonded together with a hydrogen bond. The pairing bases (the 'rungs' of the ladder) are connected to the side posts of the ladder, which contain phosphate.
