DNA is having double helix structure it is having two
spirally coiled chains which looks like ladder.
these chains actually are made up of sugars and nitrogen
bases .In between these chains 4 nitrogen bases are present.
They are adenine,guanine,thiamine,cytosine.Adenine always
pairs with thiamine by two hydrogen bonds where as guanine
always pairs with cytosine by three hydrogen bonds.
By all these fatures one can distuinguish that it is DNA.
