Through covalent and hydrogen bonds. The covalent bonds hold the pentose sugar-phosphate backbone together and are alternatively called phosphodiester bonds. The hydrogen bonds are between the nitrogen bases and hold the "rungs" of the ladder together.

Do nucleic acids contain a peptide bond?

No, nucleic acids do not contain peptide bonds. Peptide bonds are specific to proteins, linking amino acids together. Nucleic acids, such as DNA and RNA, are composed of nucleotides linked by phosphodiester bonds, which connect the sugar of one nucleotide to the phosphate group of another.
