Answer:

The correct answer is - hydrogen bond.

Explanation:

Hydrogen bonding is very essential for life on earth. DNA has a double-helix structure that means it has two distinct strands in its structure and hydrogen bonds hold together the nitrogen base pairs in the middle. In absence of hydrogen bonds, DNA would have to exist as a different structure. The principal force or bonds between those two strands are Hydrogen bonds between the nitrogen bases.  Adenine always makes a hydrogen bond with Thymine whereas Guanine always binds with cytosine.

Thus, the correct answer is - hydrogen bond.

Can someone please help me with 1 evolution question ?
geniusboy [140]
Antibiotic resistance is a consequence of evolution via natural selection. The antibiotic action is an environmental pressure; those bacteria which have a mutation allowing them to survive will live on to reproduce. They will then pass this trait to their offspring, which will be a fully resistant generation.
