DNA is long polymer chain of deoxy ribonucleiotides  .length of DNA Is defined number of nucleotide . structure of polynucleotide chain  nucleotide contain : pentose sugar + nitrogenous base + phosphate  pentose sugar are two types : deoxyribose sugar  and ribose sugar    .nitrogenous base such as -[adenine , guanine, cytocin, uracil, thymine, ]   . in case of  DNA  A,G,T,C. in case of RNA   A,G,C,U. . thymine are also known as 5methyl uracil . DOUBLE HELIX STRUCTURE OF DNA . in 1953 james wattson and francis crick based on the X ray diffrence data produced by  rosalind franklin proposed double helix structure of DNA . through X ray crystallography  obtained a very fine picture of DNA . . its was suggested that ...
