Detailed explanation-1: -The 2 strands of DNA are held together by hydrogen bonds between N2 bases.
Detailed explanation-2: -Each molecule of DNA is a double helix formed from two complementary strands of nucleotides held together by hydrogen bonds between G-C and A-T base pairs.
Detailed explanation-3: -Hydrogen bonding in DNA The complementary base pairs of guanine with cytosine and adenine with thymine connect to one another using hydrogen bonds. These hydrogen bonds between complementary nucleotides are what keeps the two strands of a DNA helix together.
Detailed explanation-4: -There are four types of nitrogenous bases in DNA, i.e Guanine, Cytosine, Adenine, and Thymine. The complementary base pairs of guanine with cytosine and adenine with thymine connect to one another by hydrogen bonds. The hydrogen bonds between complementary nucleotides keep the two strands of DNA helix together.
