<span>Muscle cells and nerve cells (neurons) are two very different types of cells. While nerve cells are involved in the transmission of neural synapses (hence the name), myocytes contract to move the skeletal bones and move the body. Muscle cells can be smooth (visceral), cardiac, or skeletal.</span><span>Oct</span>

Now that you have identified the components of DNA, can you describe how these components bind together to form a DNA molecule?

omeli [17]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is attached below.

Answer:

1. DNA is the polymer of deoxyribonucleotides that contain the nitrogenous base, pentose sugar and phosphate group. The phosphate is attached with the 3 C position of the deoxyribose sugar. This leads to teh formation of phosphodiester bond.

2. The DNA backbone consists of phosphate and sugar. The nitrogenous bases are inserted inside the DNA molecule. These nitrogenous bases are linked together by the hydrogen bonds.

3. The adenine binds requires two hydrogen bonds to bind with thymine. This provide complementary nature to the DNA molecule. Uracil is present instead of thymine in RNA .

4. The guanine binds requires three hydrogen bonds to bind with cytosine. More amount of energy is required to break their bonds.
