검증된 단계별 안내1
Recall the basic structure of DNA, which is composed of nucleotides forming long chains called strands.
Understand that DNA typically consists of two complementary strands that run in opposite directions, forming a double helix.
Recognize that the two strands are held together by hydrogen bonds between complementary base pairs (adenine with thymine, and cytosine with guanine).
Note that DNA is not usually single-stranded, triple-stranded, or four-stranded under normal biological conditions.
Conclude that the best description of DNA's structure in terms of strand number is that it is typically double-stranded.
