The three nitrogen bases of DNA are adenine, guanine, and cytosine.
In DNA, every three bases is called a codon. Each codon corresponds to a specific amino acid during protein synthesis.
The double-stranded DNA molecule is held together by four chemical components called nucleotides. These nucleotides are adenine, thymine, guanine, and cytosine, and they form base pairs with each other to create the structure of DNA.
Complementary bases in DNA are bound together by hydrogen bonds. Adenine pairs with thymine, forming two hydrogen bonds, while guanine pairs with cytosine, forming three hydrogen bonds. These hydrogen bonds help hold the two strands of the DNA double helix together.
DNA polymerase matches the bases on the parent strand.

Describe how each of the DNA nitrogen bases pair together
Bases of DNA are linked together by hydrogen bonds. These bonds are formed between specific pairs of nucleotide bases (A-T and G-C) and contribute to the stability of the DNA structure.
The three-base sequence on a tRNA molecule is known as an anti-codon. This matches up with the codon (another 3-base code) on the mRNA to ensure that the correct amino acid is added to the chain (protein) being created.
All mRNA and DNA sets of three are codons, and rRNA is anti-codons.
Hydrogen bonds hold bases together in DNA. These bonds form between the nitrogenous bases adenine (A) and thymine (T), and between cytosine (C) and guanine (G), helping to stabilize the DNA molecule's double helix structure.
The double-stranded DNA molecule is held together by four chemical components called nucleotides. These nucleotides are adenine, thymine, guanine, and cytosine, and they form base pairs with each other to create the structure of DNA.
Complementary bases in DNA are held together via hydrogen bonds. Between G and C there are three hydrogen bonds and between A and T there are two hydrogen bonds.
Complementary strands of DNA are held together by hydrogen bonds connecting complementary bases.
DNA molecules consist of a sugar (deoxyribose), a phosphate and a nitrogenous base. Together, these three components are called a nucleotide.
