The backbone of DNA is sugar/phosphate, the little bars in it are called bases that always match up like this:
Adenine-Thymine
Cytosine-Guanine
What else can I help you with?
What molecules make up chromosomes?
The DNA molecule.
What molecules make up the backbone of a DNA molecule?
The backbone of the DNA molecule consists of a sugar, deoxyribose and a phosphate group. --(sugars and phosphates)
What makes up the sides of a DNA molecule?
A DNA molecule consists of two strands that are made up of sugar (deoxyribose) and phosphate molecules. The sides of the DNA molecule are formed by alternating sugar and phosphate molecules linked together to create a backbone for the molecule.
How many molecules of eukaryotic DNA make up a chromosome in humans?
A chromosome in humans is made up of one long DNA molecule. This DNA molecule is double-stranded and contains thousands of genes.
What molecules make up the sides of a DNA molecule?
alternating deoxyribose sugar molecules and phophate groups
What 2 molecules make up the sides of the DNA molecule?
The two molecules that make up the sides of the DNA molecule are deoxyribose sugar and phosphate groups. These molecules alternate to form the sugar-phosphate backbone of the DNA double helix structure.
What makes up the side of the ''ladder'' of a DNA molecule?
The sides of the DNA latter consist of the sugar deoxyribose and phosphates. The bond between the latter and the nitrogen bases together is known a a nucleotide. Nucleotides are molecules that make up the structure of DNA and RNA.
What molecules make up the the sides of a DNA molecule?
The sides of a DNA molecule are made up of alternating deoxyribose sugar and phosphate molecules, linked together by phosphodiester bonds. This forms the backbone of the DNA double helix, with the nitrogenous bases projecting inward towards each other.
the sides of the dna molecule are made up of sugar molecules and what?
Sugar molecules and phosphate groups
What important molecule of heredity contains phosphorous?
DNA, which contains our genetic blueprint, has phosphate (phosphorus and three oxygen) molecules that alternate with ribose molecules to make up the side of the DNA ladder.
What 2 substances make up the backbone or the sides of the DNA molecule?
The sugar-phosphate backbone of DNA is made up of deoxyribose (a sugar) and phosphate.
What is the molecules that make the upright of a DNA?
The backbone of DNA is made up of alternating sugar (deoxyribose) and phosphate molecules. The bases adenine, thymine, guanine, and cytosine are attached to the deoxyribose sugars, forming the rungs of the DNA helix.
