Deoxyribose (Sugar) and a Phosphate
two and the shape is like a ladder
The hydrogen bonds that "tie" the two DNA strands together; 2 for A and T and 3 for C and G.
DNA is composed of two strands of DNA nucleotides, arranged into a double helix, often referred to as a twisted ladder. The sides of the ladder are composed of alternating deoxyribose sugar molecules and phosphate molecules, and the rungs of the ladder are the pairs of nitrogen bases. The two strands of DNA nucleotides are held together by hydrogen bonds which form between the paired nitrogen bases.
You are probably thinking of DNA. The base pairs link the two strands together like a series of steps. However, since it is helical, it might be more accurate to compare it to a spiral staircase.
The Sides of this ladder equate to the Dna's Sugar-Phosphate Backbone; the Rungs of this ladder equate to the Hydrogen-bonding that takes place between base pairs.

If you mean the rungs of the twisted ladder model, they are made of the nitrogen bases of both strands held together by hydrogen bonds.

The DNA ladder is made of sugar and phosphates.
DNA is made of two strands (chains) of DNA nucleotides that are twisted, forming a double helix, often compared to a twisted ladder. The two strands are held together by hydrogen bonds between the nitrogen bases.

Yes, DNA is double-stranded.There are two strands. Each one is a polymer (series) of nucleotides, and the two strands twine round one another to form the DNA molecule.

James Watson and Francis Crick discoverd the two strands of nucleotides that form a twisted ladder (double helix) in DNA
Chromatins are made up of DNA strands
A molecule of DNA consists of two strands of various chemical compounds that other chemicals carrying genetic information join together, much like ladder rungs hold ladder rails apart. The two strands joined with thousands of rungs look like a long rope ladder that has been twisted into the shape of a spiral, called a double helix.
