Shared pair of electrons holds a chemical bond called?
When two atoms share electrons, the shared pair of electrons form a chemical bond called a covalent bond.
What do we called nucleotides that pair of together?
Complementary base pair
What do you call the energy which is required to bond atoms together?
Covalent [the sharing of a pair of electrons] bond energy.
Why cant thymine and guanine pair?
Thymine can only pair with adenine and guanine can only pair with cytosine due to the base-pairing rule.
DNA Which base pair up together?
Guanine-Cytosine and Adenine-Thymine
What type of bond holds the base pair together?
The nitrogen bases are held together by hydrogen bonds.
What kind of bond holds hydrogen atoms together in a hydrogen molecule?
The two atoms share their electrons - so it is a covalent bond ie a shared pair.
Which bases in RNA correspond to each other?
Guanine and cytosine base pair (triple bond), and adenine and uracil base pair (double bond).
Shared pair of electrons holds a chemical bond called?
When two atoms share electrons, the shared pair of electrons form a chemical bond called a covalent bond.
What do we called nucleotides that pair of together?
Complementary base pair
Scientists described a base as a compound that donates an electron pair?
The Lewis Theory describes a base as a compound that donates an electron pair. By donating the electron pair there is a covalent bond.
What type of bond holds a nucleotide together and connects each nucleotide in a DNA strand?
The backbone of the nucleotides are composed of repeating ribose (in RNA) or deoxyribose (in DNA) and phosphates held together by phosphodiester bonds between the 5's and 3's of the ribose/deoxyribose.
What is a tovalent bond?
I think you mean a covalent bond. It is a shared pair of electrons which joins atoms together.
What do you call the energy which is required to bond atoms together?
Covalent [the sharing of a pair of electrons] bond energy.
How many hydrogen bond hold guanine and cytosine?
The Adenine (Thymine) base pair is held together by 2 hydrogen bonds while the Guanine (Cytosine) base pair is held together by 3 hydrogen bonds. That is also the reason why the two strands of a DNA molecule can be separated more easily at sections that are densely populated by A - T base pairs.
What links a pair of complementary bases together?
phospo-di-ester bond
What type of chemical bond holds the bases of the two strands of Dna together?
Hydrogen bonds are one of the weakest bonds, and aren't even true bonding of molecules, but rather a magnetic attraction between them. This particular bond is what allows the base pairs of DNA to properly link, as Adenine and thymine bond, and cytosine and guanine bond, but neither of these pairs bonds with elements from the other pair in this way.
