Biology

DNA stands for deoxyribonucleic acid and is the carrier molecule for hereditary genetic information.
The DNA molecule is double-stranded, consisting of two complementary polynucleic chains which are antiparallel-facing and which are wound in a double helix (helical form). These two chains are bound by hydrogen bonds between each pair of nucleotides (between guanine and cytosine there are three hydrogen bonds and between adenine and thymine there are two hydrogen bonds). and since the DNA is condensed in the form of chromatin, it also helps to keep this double-stranded structure.

Why dominant traits may not necssairly be more common in a population
nataly862011 [7]
This isn't always the case and there is no reason it should be .Whether or not a trait is common has to do with how many copies of that gene version (or allele) are in the population. It has little or nothing to do with whether the trait is dominant or recessive. Let's take eye color as an example.
