What else can I help you with?
When two strands of DNA line up a adenine always pairs up with?
Uracil in Watson-Crick base-pairing though non-standard pairs exist.
What is specific base pairing?
a pair of nitrogenous bases,consisting of a purine linked by hydrozen bonds to a pyrimidine that connects the complementary strands . the base pair are adenine,thymine,cytosine & guanine in DNA & uracil in place of thymine in RNA.
A purine base that pairs with cytosine?
Adenine is the purine base that pairs with cytosine through hydrogen bonding in DNA. This base pairing is a key component of the complementary nature of DNA strands.
What is a molecole that consists of two complimentary strands connected by base pairs?
DNA
What happens first in DNA replication?
base pairs are broken apart
When two strands of DNA line up a adenine always pairs up with?
Uracil in Watson-Crick base-pairing though non-standard pairs exist.
How are the 2 nucleotide strands connected?
The two nucleotide strands in DNA are connected by hydrogen bonds between complementary base pairs: adenine (A) with thymine (T), and guanine (G) with cytosine (C). These base pairs create the double-helix structure of DNA.
In DNA the base represented by an a always pairs with the base represented by?
A (Adenine) always pairs with T (Thymine).
What binds the DNA strands to keep them separated?
The DNA strands are bound and kept separated by hydrogen bonds between complementary base pairs.
What is specific base pairing?
a pair of nitrogenous bases,consisting of a purine linked by hydrozen bonds to a pyrimidine that connects the complementary strands . the base pair are adenine,thymine,cytosine & guanine in DNA & uracil in place of thymine in RNA.
A purine base that pairs with cytosine?
Adenine is the purine base that pairs with cytosine through hydrogen bonding in DNA. This base pairing is a key component of the complementary nature of DNA strands.
What type of bonds holds DNA strands together?
DNA strands are held together by hydrogen bonds.
What is a molecole that consists of two complimentary strands connected by base pairs?
DNA
What is the relationship of the two DNA strands to each other?
The two strands in a DNA molecule (the polynucleotides) are complementary to each other. This means that the base sequence in one strand determines the base sequence in the other strand. This happens because of specific base pairing. An adenine in one strand always pairs with a thymine in the other strand, and a cytosine in one strand always pairs with a guanine in the other strand. So if you know the base sequence in one strand of the DNA yoiu can work out the sequence in the complementary strand. See: http://www.phschool.com/science/biology_place/biocoach/dnarep/basepair.htmlDNA strands run anti-parallel from one another, and have a double helix structure. The strands are held together by hydrogen bonds between base pairs that are weak individually, but collectively strong.
What happens first in DNA replication?
base pairs are broken apart
Is DNA always six base pairs long?
No, DNA is not always six base pairs long. The length of DNA can vary and is determined by the number of nucleotide base pairs present in the DNA molecule. The human genome, for example, consists of about 3 billion base pairs.
Why can you predict the base of one strand in a molecule of DNA if you know the sequence of the other strands?
in DNA, each base pairs up with only one other base
