The strands of the helix align so that the nucleotides face "up" on one side of the helix and "down" on the other side of the helix. Nitrogen bases in the two strands of the helix form hydrogen bonds with each other across the width of the molecule. On the DNA molecule an adenine (A) on one strand, always bonds with thymine (T)on the opposite strand. Likewise guanine (G) always hydrogen bonds with cytosine(C)The term complimentary is always used to describe these pairings. For example, A is complementary to T and C is complementary to G. The overall appearance of the DNA molecule is very similar to a rope ladder that is twisted, with the hand rails of the ladder composed of sugar phosphate backbone and the rungs of the ladder composed of paired nitrogenous bases.

Why use of computer in biology?
Computers are used a lot in genetics, since the genetic code has too many nucleotides to figure out by hand. Also, the computer can store long-term information.
Do microchips read the death of animals?
No. They store information about the owner of the animal.
Which will give you the most reliable information about adopting a pet?
the web site of a local pet store.
Where can one find more information about large dog beds?

Where can people get information on duck vacation rentals?
You can get information on duck vacation rentals anywhere near hunting and fishing bait shops. If your not in the vicinity of these shops then a local sporting good store might help.
What molecule is used to store genetic information?
DNA stores genetic information but other molecule which also serve as genetic material is RNA which is found generally in plant viruses. So both DNA & RNA are genetic material. DNA stores genetic information but other molecule which also serve as genetic material is RNA which is found generally in plant viruses.
How the structure of the DNA molecule allows it to store information?
DNA stores genetic information in the sequence of nitrogen bases.
Which part of a nucleotide molecule encodes genetic information?
The nucleotide bases store the information.
