What are the long chains that DNA make up?

DNA is made of two strands (chains) of DNA nucleotides that are twisted, forming a double helix, often compared to a twisted ladder. The two strands are held together by hydrogen bonds between the nitrogen bases.

What are DNA chains are coiled into structures called?

DNA chains are coiled into structures called double helices. The two strands of DNA wind around each other in a twisted ladder-like structure, forming the characteristic double helix shape. Each strand is made up of nucleotides, which consist of a sugar-phosphate backbone and nitrogenous bases.


DNA consists of how many chains?

A DNA molecule has two chains of nucleotides. Each chain is usually referred to as a DNA strand. RNA has only one strand.


How many polynucleotide chains are in each DNA molecule?

How does a single DNA molecule produce two identical molecules?

Two single chains bond together. The bonded chains twist together to form a double helix.


DNA is an example of what?

DNA consists of two long polymers of simple units called nucleotides, with backbones made of sugars and phosphate.


At the end of DNA replication two new strands of DNA have been produced giving a total of?

Two new DNA chains are formed at the end of DNA replication, both identical in sequence to the template (or parent) chain. These chains are composed of 2 complimentary strands. It is important to note that of the newly formed DNA chains, one strand is the same as the template strand and the other one is a newly synthesized one.


What shape is a DNA strand?

A DNA strand is shaped like a 'double helix'.


What direction must two chains of DNA run?

Two chains of DNA run in opposite directions, or antiparallel to each other. This means that one strand runs in the 5' to 3' direction, while the other runs in the 3' to 5' direction. This antiparallel orientation is important for DNA replication and other cellular processes.
