A DNA molecule is composed of Deoxyribose, sugar base, bonded to phosphate by a covalent bond, which according to if Adenine and Thymine bond, will results in a double hydrogen bond, or Guanine and cytosine which results in a triple hydrogen bond. The DNA molecule is a double stranded helix wich is anti-paralell, because one goes in the direction of 5'-3' and the other one from 3'-5'. Which is why the lagging strand 3'-5' requires additional enzymes for replication.
here is a good picture that might help you understand:

What else can I help you with?
Does RNA have a double helix structure?
No, RNA does not have a double helix structure like DNA.
Can RNA form a double helix structure?
No, RNA cannot form a double helix structure like DNA.
What does the DNA double helix look like?
The DNA double helix is a twisted ladder-like structure made up of two strands of nucleotides that are paired together. The sides of the ladder are formed by alternating sugar and phosphate molecules, while the rungs are made up of pairs of nitrogenous bases (adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine) connected by hydrogen bonds. This helical structure allows DNA to store genetic information and replicate itself accurately.
Is mitochondrial DNA linear or circular in structure?
Mitochondrial DNA is circular in structure.
Does DNA contain deoxyribose in its structure?
Yes, DNA contains deoxyribose in its structure.
What does the DNA look look like?
You get a toy ladder and twist it repeatedly. You get the two spring like structure, going parallel to each other. DNA helix looks like the same.
If organisms have the same bone structure would they have the same DNA?
no because the DNA doesn't make up what your bone structure will look like it just means they inherited it from there ancestors.
How does DNA look in fish gonads?
It looks the same as it does everywhere else. DNA is DNA. Its structure is the same everywhere.

43 What is the shape of DNA?
DNA is double helical (like a step ladder) in structure
Is a DNA a single stranded?
DNA is a double helix structure like a twisted ladder
What is the spaghetti like structure in the center of the cell?
DNA
Does RNA have a double helix structure?
No, RNA does not have a double helix structure like DNA.
What does DNA look like when it's clumped together?
When DNA is clumped together, it takes on a condensed and compact structure known as chromatin. In this state, DNA is wrapped around proteins called histones to form nucleosomes, which then further coil and condense to form chromosomes. This condensed structure allows DNA to be packed efficiently within the cell nucleus.
What do biologists look at when they classify an animal?
Biologists classify animals by their body structure, the way their body structure develops, and by their DNA.
What molecule has the shape of a double strand helix?
DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) has a double helix structure, in which two strands of nucleotides are wound around each other. This helical structure is responsible for carrying genetic information in living organisms.
What is bead like structure formed by DNA and his-tone molecules?
Chromosome.
