Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Double helix, as related to genomics, is a term used to describe the physical structure of DNA. A DNA molecule is made up of two linked strands that wind around each other to resemble a twisted ladder in a helix-like shape. Each strand has a backbone made of alternating sugar (deoxyribose) and phosphate groups.
Detailed explanation-2: -DNA is made of two linked strands that wind around each other to resemble a twisted ladder-a shape known as a double helix. Each strand has a backbone made of alternating sugar (deoxyribose) and phosphate groups.
Detailed explanation-3: -DNA is a double helix formed by base pairs attached to a sugar-phosphate backbone.
