∙ 12y agothe rungs are made up of two "nitrogen containing bases"that are connected to each other by two or three "hydrogen bonds"
this is how a DNA looks like when untwisted NCB stands for nitrogen containing base and H stands for Hydrogen

∙ 15y agoLets say you are building a ladder. From one level, the ladder has two longs sides that go straight up and down. These two sides are connected by many rungs. From another level, these rungs are made of wood. One possible way to see the structure of DNA is as a long winding ladder with many rungs. From one level, these 'rungs' represent two different bases that have joined together. There are four bases found in DNA: adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine. From another level, these bases are made up a common group of elements. Nitrogen is one of these elements.

How many rungs are in a DNA molecule?
It depends on the organism. In human DNA there are approximately 3 billion "rungs."
What group makes up the rungs or steps of DNA?
The "rungs" of DNA are the nitrogenous bases (Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine and Guanine). To make the rungs - A binds to T and C binds to G.
Nucleotides are found were on the DNA twisted ladder?
Nucleotides are found on the DNA twisted ladder as segments of the uprights and rungs.
DNA is in the form of a ladder with rungs of equal length although the rungs may vary in composition What accounts for the equality of length?
DNA's rungs are made from a purine that is longer and always Guanine (G) or Adenine (A) and a pyrmidine which is small and always Cytosine (C) or Thymine (T). So each DNA rung is always equal with a base pair of ( A ) and ( T ) or ( G ) and ( C ).
What makes up the rungs of the DNA ladder?
Adenine,Thymine,Guanine,and Cytosine!
How many rungs are in a DNA molecule?
It depends on the organism. In human DNA there are approximately 3 billion "rungs."
What are the 4 that make up the rungs of the DNA ladder?
what are 4 bases that make up the rungs of the DNA ladder
What specifically breaks the rungs of the DNA ladder?
The enzyme helicase separates the nitrogen base pairs, or rungs, of the DNA ladder.
What are the 4 bases the make up the rungs of the DNA ladder?
what are 4 bases that make up the rungs of the DNA ladder
What molecule break the rungs bases apart?
The DNA molecule is known to break the rungs apart. In order for this to be accomplished, the bases must synthesize with the DNA.
What are the rungs of the DNA ladder in the DNA miolecule?
They are nitrogen bases.
What group makes up the rungs or steps of DNA?
The "rungs" of DNA are the nitrogenous bases (Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine and Guanine). To make the rungs - A binds to T and C binds to G.
Are nitrogen bases are located in the central rungs of a DNA ladder?
Yes, the rungs of the DNA ladder consist of pairs of nitrogen bases.
What forms the rungs of the ladd r of DNA?
The base pairs form the rungs of the ladder.
what are the ''rungs'' of the DNA ladder made of?
nucleotitdes
What 3 parts make up the rungs of the DNA ladder?
The rungs of the DNA ladder are composed of alternating deoxyribose sugar molecules and phosphate groups.
What molecule breaks the rungs apart?
The DNA molecule is known to break the rungs apart. In order for this to be accomplished, the bases must synthesize with the DNA.
