Both DNA and RNA are synthesized by covalently linking a nucleoside triphosphate to the previous nucleotide, constantly adding t

o a growing chain. In the case of DNA, the new strand becomes part of a stable helix. The two strands are complementary in sequence and antiparallel in directionality. What is the principal force that holds these two strands together

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.

devlian [24]
Lipid bilayer model was proposed for its structure but it was modified and new structure is according to fluid mosaic model. Plasma membrane is selectively permible as it selects small molecules like lipid etc (composition is also of lipid and as solubility principle like dissolve like) so large and charged molecules like plasma and ion can't pass through it. Lipid are in form of layer so at the chain when ever other phosphate group attach the place conjugate molecule (phospholipid ) formed

Vladimir [108]
Well if you're talking about the distance from one charged particle to another then the change from the particle stays the same unless there is polarization, but the electric field/charge stays the same

The answer is Starch molecules are larger than glucose molecules

The experiment show that the result of starch molecule test show higher concentration of carbohydrate than glucose. This show that the starch is made of multiple sugar. Because the starch is made of multiple sugar, it should be obvious that the size of the starch also bigger of the glucose.
