The four bases found in DNA are
adenine
(A),
thymine
(T),
cytosine
(C), and
guanine
(G).
what is DNA?
a
complex molecule
that
decides characteristic
and
traits
of all
organisms
the structure of dna consists of
two
strands
twisted
around one another to form a
double helix
where is DNA llocated for humans?
Nucleus
a nucleotide
includes
a phosphate group, sugar called deoxyribose and nitrogenous base
the sugar is DNA is the
ribose
/
deoxyribose
A always pairs with
T
C always pairs with
G
A,T,G,C are all
complimentary
bases
the double helix has a
sugar
and
phosphate
pattern for the
backbone
the
complimentary
bases can only be joined onto the
sugar
part of the
double helix
