a. Phosphate
b. Deoxyribose sugar
c. Nitrogenous base
3. Complete the table below to show the pairings of the bases in DNA and RNA.
DNA RNA
4. In the space below, draw a single strand of three nucleotides, naming the bonds between them and
showing the correct relative position of these bonds.
RNA DNA
Adenine (A) Adenine (A)
Guanine (G) Guanine (G)
Bases
Uracil (U) Thymine (T)
Cytosine (C) Cytosine (C)
Ribose
Sugar
Deoxyribose
6. In the space below, draw a section of DNA, showing two anti-parallel strands of four nucleotides each.
Label the bonds which hold the bases together as well as the correct complementary base pairs.
b. Hydrogen bonds
Hydrogen bonds holds up the structure of the double helix which is the structure of DNA since
hydrogen bonds holds adjacent sections together for the double helix structure as well as holding
up complementary base pairs together in the double-helix structure. (two strands of the DNA
molecule together.
