DNA is made up of deoxyribose, phosphate, and nitrogen bases (adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine). The rungs of the ladder are made of two bases joined together with either two or three weak hydrogen bonds.
The steps on the DNA ladder are called nucleotides. Each nucleotide consists of a sugar molecule, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base (adenine, thymine, cytosine, or guanine). These nucleotides pair up to form the double helix structure of DNA.
The sides of the ladder are made up of alternating deoxyribose sugar and phosphate molecules. The steps or rungs of the ladder are made up of nitrogenous bases held together by hydrogen bonds.
The sides of the DNA ladder are made up of sugar-phosphate backbones. The sugar in DNA is deoxyribose, linked together by phosphate groups forming the backbone of the DNA strand.
The sides of the DNA ladder are formed by alternating sugar and phosphate molecules. These sugar-phosphate backbones run parallel to each other on opposite sides of the double helix structure of the DNA molecule.
The correct answer is Adenine, Thymine, Guanine, and Cytosine. If that is the answer, the answer before forgot one of them. REMEMBER! Adenine and Thymine go together and Guanine and Cytosine go together.
The DNA ladder is made of sugar and phosphates.
The sugar-phosphate backbone of DNA is made up of alternating sugar (deoxyribose) and phosphate molecules. These molecules form the "rungs" of the DNA ladder, connecting the nitrogenous bases that make up the steps of the ladder.
The steps of a DNA ladder are made up of alternating sugar (deoxyribose) and phosphate molecules. The side railing of the ladder is composed of nitrogenous bases (adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine) that connect the two strands of the DNA molecule.
The 'steps' or 'rungs' of the DNA 'ladder' are complimentary pairs of bases bonded by hydrogen bonds. The bases are Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine and Guanine. Adenine always bonds to Thymine and Cytosine always bonds to Guanine.
The 'steps' or 'rungs' of the DNA 'ladder' are complimentary pairs of bases bonded by hydrogen bonds. The bases are Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine and Guanine. Adenine always bonds to Thymine and Cytosine always bonds to Guanine.
The 'steps' on the 'DNA Ladder' are made up of the four nitrogenous bases, Cytosine, Guanine, Thymine, and Adenine, while the pairing bases (Adenine & Thymine, Cytosine & Guanine) are bonded together with a hydrogen bond. The pairing bases (the 'rungs' of the ladder) are connected to the side posts of the ladder, which contain phosphate.
The three components of DNA are phosphate, deoxyribose sugar, and nitrogen base. A DNA strand looks like a ladder. The "sides" of the ladder are made up by the phosphates and deoxyribose sugars the "steps" are the nitrogen bases.
The steps of the DNA ladder are made up of nitrogenous bases. These bases include adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine. They pair up in a specific manner where adenine pairs with thymine, and cytosine pairs with guanine.

You are probably thinking of DNA. The base pairs link the two strands together like a series of steps. However, since it is helical, it might be more accurate to compare it to a spiral staircase.
