What type of sugar makes up the backbone of the DNA molecule?
The sugar found in the backbone of DNA is the deoxyribose.
What type of chemical bond holds together the backbone of a strand of DNA?
Covalent bonds between a sugar molecule (deoxyribose) and a phosphate group make up the backbone of DNA. These are very strong covalent bonds and are broken only with great expenditure of energy--x-rays, for example.
In a molecule of nitrogen three pairs of electrons are shared by two nitrogen atoms The type of bond that is formed is an example of an?
That is a triple covalent bond.
What type of bonds form between the nitrogenous bases of a DNA molecule?
A hydrogen bond--two between A and T and three between G and C.
What type of chemical bone holds together the base pairs?
The backbone of a DNA molecule is composed of 1:1 molecular phosphoric acid and deoxyribose, together with the base (A, T, C, or G) is called a nucleotide. While the backbone of a RNA molecule is composed of 1:1 molecular phosphoric acid and ribose.
What type of bond connects the atoms in a molecule of nitrogen?
i think it is a triple bond or it could be a double bond
