Answer:

The correct answer would be a hydrogen bond.

The two strands of the DNA are held together with the help of hydrogen bonds formed between the nitrogenous bases or base pairs.

The adenine (A) base pairs or makes a hydrogen bond with thymine (T) and guanine (G) base pairs or makes a hydrogen bond with cytosine (C).

2 hydrogen bonds are present between the A and T whereas 3 hydrogen bonds are present between G and C.

Heterozygous individuals have a better chance of surviving and reproducing in regions where malaria is prevalent since they do not fully contract the disease.
