## Activity 4: Understanding DNA Structure### Study the structure of DNA and answer the questions below.#### Diagram Explanation:The diagram illustrates the structure of DNA and includes:1. **Antiparallel DNA Strands**: - Shows two strands running in opposite directions. - Composed of nucleotides, each containing a sugar-phosphate backbone and nitrogenous bases connected by hydrogen bonds.2. **Key Components**: - **Adenine (A)**: Color-coded in orange. - **Thymine (T)**: Color-coded in pink. - **Guanine (G)**: Color-coded in green. - **Cytosine (C)**: Color-coded in purple. - **Hydrogen Bonds**: Indicated between paired bases.3. **DNA Ladder**: - Represents the arrangement of base pairs. - Shows specific pairing: A with T, and G with C.4. **Double Helix**: - Illustrates the twisted ladder-like structure of DNA.#### Questions:1. What are the common parts of the nucleotide? _______________________________________2. Name the different kinds of nitrogenous bases found in the DNA molecule. _______________________________________3. In DNA, what is the pairing arrangement of the bases? _______________________________________**Source**: Fig. 9 DNA Structure.
