Which enzyme is added to attach the DNA backbone between vetor and foreign DNA that have formed bases pairs at sticky ends during of recombinant DNA?

DNA ligase is added.


Part of the backbone in DNA that does not contain phosphorus?

The part of the DNA backbone that does not contain phosphorus is the deoxyribose sugar. It is the sugar molecule that forms the backbone of the DNA strand and is connected to the nitrogenous bases. The phosphate group is the component that connects the sugar molecules, forming the backbone of the DNA.


What part of the DNA backbone do nitrogen bases bond to?

Nitrogen bases in DNA bond to the deoxyribose sugar molecules that make up the DNA backbone. The bond between the sugar and the base is a covalent bond known as a glycosidic bond.

DNA ligase


In what part of DNA is the genetic code stored?

In the Nitrogen bases, or nucleotides. The are in the "middle" of the DNA, in between the sugar-phosphate backbone.

What forms the backbone of the DNA molecule?

nitrogeous bases


What do all four DNA bases attach to?

I am not exactly sure what you mean, and there are a couple of different ways I can answer this. First, if you are talking about what they attach to during transcription/translation (protein synthesis), they eventually attach to their anti-codon's, which then attach to the corresponding amino acids to build a protein. If you are talking about what they physically attach to when in the double helix form (DNA), then the answer is a phosphate deoxyribose backbone.


What do bases attach to on the DNA ladder?

The bases are:(A) Adenine(T) Thymine(G) Guanine(C) CytosineAdenine always pairs with Thymine. Guanine always pairs with Cytosine. Think of the word AT for Adenine and Thymine. Think of the store G.N.C (just the G.C. part) for Guanine and Cytosine.


What happens after the DNA splits?

Random bases attach.


Which part of a DNA molecule carries the genetic instructions that are unique th the sugar phosphate backbone or the nitrogen containing bases?

The nitrogen-containing bases, which are adenine, thymine, guanine, and cytosine, carry the genetic instructions in a DNA molecule. These bases form the rungs of the DNA ladder. The sugar-phosphate backbone of the DNA molecule provides structural support.
