The heat breaks the hydrogen bonds that hold the nitrogenous bases together in the centre of the DNA molecule. However, the covalent bonds between the phosphate and deoxyribose sugar are not affected.
No, RNA is a single-stranded molecule.
No, single stranded DNA molecules aren't considered antiparallel. Antiparallel refers to the orientation of the two strands in a double-stranded DNA molecule, where one runs 5' to 3' and the other runs 3' to 5'. Single-stranded DNA is usually unidirectional and doesn't have a complementary strand to be antiparallel to.
tRNA, or transfer RNA, is a single stranded molecule. The only double stranded RNA is dsRNA, or double stranded RNA. They are typically found in viruses.
No, DNA is typically double-stranded, while RNA is usually single-stranded.
No, DNA is a double-stranded molecule consisting of two strands that are twisted together in a helical structure.
No, RNA is a single-stranded molecule.

Two double stranded DNA molecules are created by the process of DNA replication.
tRNA, or transfer RNA, is a single stranded molecule. The only double stranded RNA is dsRNA, or double stranded RNA. They are typically found in viruses.
The double helix.
No, DNA is typically double-stranded, while RNA is usually single-stranded.
No, DNA is a double-stranded molecule consisting of two strands that are twisted together in a helical structure.
RNA is always single stranded. DNA, on the other hand, can exist as either single-stranded or double-stranded.
After 3 replication cycles in PCR, the number of double-stranded DNA molecules doubles each cycle. Therefore, after 3 cycles, you would have 8 double-stranded DNA molecules.
A chromosome in humans is made up of one long DNA molecule. This DNA molecule is double-stranded and contains thousands of genes.
RNA is shorter than DNA because RNA is typically single-stranded, while DNA is double-stranded. This means that RNA molecules have a shorter length compared to the longer double-stranded DNA molecules.
DNA molecules have two strands that are twisted together to form a double helix structure. Each strand is made up of a sequence of nucleotides containing genetic information.
