Hydrogen bonds
No, the two strands of DNA are not identical to each other. They are complementary and have opposite sequences of nucleotide bases.
There are two strands of DNA in a DNA double helix, each consisting of many nucleotide subunits. They are like building blocks that make up the DNA molecule, which would then be like a block tower. A 'strand of nucleotides' as you put it would basically be a DNA molecule (if they are deoxyribose nucleotides) or if they are ribose nucleotides, they would be a RNA molecule. DNA can come in double stranded helices (most of the time) or can be single stranded (as in some viruses).
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.
A DNA molecule is made up of two strands that are joined together to form a double helix structure. Each strand contains a series of nucleotide bases that pair up with each other (A with T, and G with C) to create the genetic code.
The structure of DNA is a double helix, made up of two strands that twist around each other in a spiral shape.
Hydrogen bonds

The two strands of DNA are held together by hydrogen bonds between the nitrogen base pairs.

hydrogen bonds
Strands within a molecule can bond to each other through interactions such as hydrogen bonding, Van der Waals forces, or hydrophobic interactions. These bonds occur due to the chemical properties of the molecules involved and help stabilize the overall structure of the molecule.
In a DNA molecule, two polynucleotide strands are present. These strands are arranged in a double helix structure, with each strand consisting of a sequence of nucleotides that are complementary to each other.
each strand in the DNA molecule has a gap of 3.4 angstrom(Ao) between them. the total length of one series of strand or 1 DNA molecule is 34 Ao. therefore 34/3.4=10. there are 10 strands or N2 base pairs in a DNA molecule.
