Let's explore the remarkable structure of DNA!!!!
The first thing that
you would see if you were to look at DNA is its double helix shape. A double
helix is shaped like two parallel lines (like in a ladder) twisting along its
length. Within the double helix, you will see four different bases that bond
with each other and connect the two parallel sides of the helix. The names of
the bases are adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine. The bases bond in a
certain order, that is:
This
is a picture of DNA!
