two nitrogenous bases linked together in the middle
Two of the four nitrogenous bases make up the rungs on the DNA ladder. They are held together by two hydrogen bonds that occur between the adenosine and the thymine base pairs. Between the cytosine and the guanine there are three.
What components make up the backbone of DNA
A stretched out DNA molecule is referred to as chromatin. Chromatin is the material that makes up chromosomes, and consists of DNA wrapped around histone proteins. It is found in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells.
DNA molecule is wound up around proteins called histones to form a structure known as a chromosome. This coiling helps condense the DNA for efficient storage and organization within the cell.
A chromosome in humans is made up of one long DNA molecule. This DNA molecule is double-stranded and contains thousands of genes.

What components make up the backbone of DNA
Deoxyribose sugars and phosphates make up the backbone of DNA.
The backbone of the DNA molecule consists of a sugar, deoxyribose and a phosphate group. --(sugars and phosphates)

When bonded together chemically, deoxyribose phosphate and an adenine molecule make up a nucleotide, which is a building block of DNA. This nucleotide contributes to the structure of the DNA molecule by providing the adenine base that pairs with thymine to form the rungs of the DNA ladder.
The rungs that are in the DNA ladder molecule are nucleotides. They are adenine, guanine, thymine and cytosine. Deoxyribose and phosphate make up the backbone of the molecule.
The structure of a DNA molecule is made up of three things: a sugar-phosphate backbone, nucleotide bases (adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine), and hydrogen bonds that form between the bases. These components form the double helix shape of the DNA molecule.
