Answer:

Hydrogen bonds

Step-by-step explanation:

What is the major non covalent interaction that holds two strands together in a double helix? The hydrogen bonds between the base pairs form the double helical structure of DNA. There is no exchange or sharing of electrons in hydrogen bonds as seen in covalent or ionic bonds.
