The explanation is where the answer is. You may copy word for word if you need to.

Each strand as something called the backbone. The backbone is made of alternating sugar (deoxyribose) is the scientific word for it, and the backbone is also made of phosphate groups. The backbone is attached to 4 diffrent figures. The are represented with letters. (A) = Adenine. (C) = Cytosine. (G) = Guanine. Or (T) Thymine (T).
