Nucleotides are found were on the DNA twisted ladder?

Nucleotides are found along the sugar-phosphate backbone of DNA, which forms the "twisted ladder" structure of the double helix. They are the building blocks of DNA and consist of a sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base.


What is added to each side of the DNA ladder After the molecule splits?

complementary nucleotides


What can be found on the side parts of the ladder-like DNA molecule?

On the side parts of the ladder-like DNA molecule, you will find the sugar-phosphate backbone, which provides structural support to the molecule. The sugar-phosphate backbone serves as the outer framework that holds the nitrogenous bases together in the DNA double helix.


What forms the sides of DNA ladder?

The sides of the DNA ladder are formed by alternating sugar and phosphate molecules. These sugar-phosphate backbones run parallel to each other on opposite sides of the double helix structure of the DNA molecule.


What part of the DNA forms the outside ladder structures?

on the outside of the DNA strand is the phosphate and sugar, only the sugar are connected across to the other half with the A&T and C&G


Which way does the DNA Ladder twist?

The DNA ladder (double helix) twists in a right-handed direction. It forms a spiral structure with two strands that are connected by hydrogen bonds between complementary bases (adenine with thymine, guanine with cytosine).


True or false nucleotide bases already attached to proteins form the copied side of the DNA ladder?

False. Nucleotide bases attached to proteins do not form the copied side of the DNA ladder. The new DNA strand is actually synthesized in a complementary fashion to the template strand during DNA replication.


The secret of DNA has to do with the sequence of what along the DNA ladder?

The sequence of the nitrogenous bases, which are the 'rungs' of the DNA 'ladder' are what give DNA its specificity.
