  1. you really put a lot of efforts in copying the questions from your homework without even reading them.

    the answer is C. alternating sugar and phosphate groups


  2. C

  3. DNA is made up of phospate group,the ribose sugure &the nitrogenous base pairs which are adenine,thimine,guanine & cytocine so the answer is c  

  4. The DNA molecule is made up of,what is known as,a sugar-phosphate backbone (i.e) there are alternate sugar and phosphate units joined together to form a backbone.This is the upright of the ladder.

    Answer is C.

    The bases projecting at right angles to the backbone are the "steps" of the ladder.

    Good Luck.
