Answer:

Negatively charged phosphate groups of two strands are aligned distantly from each other in a DNA double helix.

Explanation:

DNA double helix is formed when the complementary bases of two single DNA strands pair with each other. The formation of double-stranded structures places the negatively charged phosphate groups of two single DNA strands away from each other. This is because complementary base pairs are present between the sugar-phosphate backbones of two DNA strands of a double helix. The double-helical structure also concentrates the nitrogenous bases away from the surrounding watery medium. Altogether, these factors stabilize DNA dyad.

How does sun provide us with the energy we need to run our bodies?
dusya [7]
Well, the high energy and heat found in the photons of sunlight allow plants to make their own food, sustaining them long enough to be eaten by us, or to be eaten by animals about to be eaten by us. Plus we get direct warmth from the sun. These things mean that the sun is what keeps all organisms alive in the first place.
