A double helix, like the sides of a spiral staircase.
Rosalind Franklin discovered the spiral shape of DNA.
The sugar found in DNA, deoxyribose, is a five-carbon sugar with a five-sided ring in the shape of a pentagon.
The name of the shape of DNA is called double helix. There are two long strands of DNA connected in several points. These strands twist and look like a spiral or a spring.

James Watson and Francis Crick are credited with deducing the structure of DNA. This was possible due to an x-ray photograph of DNA taken by Rosalind Franklin.
