Explain the following:
The two strands of DNA are complementary to each other.

Explain the following : (i) Amino acids behave like salts rather than simple amines or carboxylic acids. (ii) The two strands of DNA are complementary to each other. (iii) Reaction of glucose that indicates the carbonyl group is present as an aldehydic group in the open structure of glucose.

Assertion: The two strands of DNA are complementary to each other Reason: Adenine specifically forms hydrogen bonds with guanine whereas cytosine forms hydrogen bonds with thymine.

Assertion : If the sequence of bases in one strand is known then the sequence in other strand can be predicted. Reason : Both the strands of DNA are complementary of each other.

The two strands of DNA are held together by :

Assertion: The two strands in double strand helix structure of DNA are complementary to each other Reason: Disulphide bonds are formed between SQPecific pairs of bases

Are the two strands of DNA molecule identical ?
