A) Each DNA nucleotide is made up of a sugar, a phosphate group ... Adenine and thymine are connected by two hydrogen bonds, and cytosine and guanine are ... In the case of RNA, the five-carbon sugar is ribose. DNA is made up of two strands that are twisted around each other to form a right-handed helix, called a double helix. Base-pairing takes place between a purine and pyrimidine: namely, A pairs with T, and G pairs with C. In other words, adenine and thymine are complementary base pairs, and cytosine and guanine are also complementary base pairs. This is the basis for Chargaff’s rule; because of their complementarity, there is as much adenine as thymine in a DNA molecule and as much guanine as cytosine. Adenine and thymine are connected by two hydrogen bonds, and cytosine and guanine are connected by three hydrogen bonds. The two strands are anti-parallel in nature; that is, one strand will have the 3′ carbon of the sugar in the “upward” position, whereas the other strand will have the 5′ carbon in the upward position. The diameter of the DNA double helix is uniform throughout because a purine (two rings) always pairs with a pyrimidine (one ring) and their combined lengths are always equal.
Answer:
There are no facts in science only hypothesis that have been tested. if there is a scientific thought it will most likely change or have to be tested again because there is always new information in the world that has yet to be discoverred.
The subunits are called nucleotides
