| 608620994 | Adenine, Thymine, Guanine, and Cytosine | ________, ________, _______, and ________ are the four nitrogenous bases found in DNA. | |
| 608620995 | Thymine | Adenine pairs with __________. | |
| 608620996 | Cytosine | Guanine pairs with __________. | |
| 608620997 | Structure of DNA | DNA is like a ladder or spiral staircase. The outside is made of a sugar-phosphate backbone with alternating sugars and phosphates and the inside "steps" are the nitrogenous bases. | |
| 608620998 | Helicase | ________ unwinds the helix. (DNA replication) |
