A DNA molecule has a width of about 2.5 nanometers. The length of the molecules however vary is size. Human DNA is 67,000 nm in length. Other organisms have different DNA lengths.
A single, long molecule of DNA is made up of a sequence of nucleotides, which are the building blocks of DNA.
Prokaryotes have a single circular DNA molecule located in the nucleoid region of the cell. This DNA molecule contains all of the genetic information necessary for the prokaryotic cell to function and reproduce.
No, a gene is not a distinct region of a long protein molecule. A gene is a specific sequence of DNA that contains the instructions for making a particular protein or RNA molecule. Genes are segments of DNA that are transcribed into RNA and translated into proteins. Proteins are made up of a chain of amino acids, which are encoded by the sequence of nucleotides in a gene.
Nucleotides in a single strand of a DNA molecule are linked together by strong chemical bonds called phosphodiester bonds. These bonds connect the sugar and phosphate groups of adjacent nucleotides, forming a long chain that makes up the DNA molecule.
DNA actually has 3 forms. A-DNA, B-DNA, and Z-DNA. B-DNA is the kind you are most familiar with and present in most organisms. A-DNA can be found in dehydrated samples while Z-DNA is rare and mostly synthesized in the lab.

There is one double helix DNA molecule per chromosome.
Is this a question or an answer?
DNA is a molecule so no.
The difference between a chromosome and a DNA molecule is that a chromosome is a single DNA molecule associated with proteins and a DNA molecule is a long thin molecule that stores genetic information.
Genetic code of the cell is found in a long molecule known as DNA.
Yes, DNA is an organic molecule.
DNA is an organic molecule.
A chromosome in humans is made up of one long DNA molecule. This DNA molecule is double-stranded and contains thousands of genes.
DNA (Dioxyribonucleic Acid)
The shape of a DNA Molecule is a Double Helix
A DNA molecule is composed of long chains of DNA nucleotides.
