Front

What is the role of hydrogen bonds in DNA structure?

Back

They hold the two strands of DNA together.

Front

What is the complementary base pairing rule in DNA?

Back

Adenine pairs with Thymine, and Cytosine pairs with Guanine.

Back

It allows for the efficient packing of genetic material and replication.
