Question

The two polynucleotide chain in DNA are:-
  1. Semiconservative
  2. Parallel
  3. Discontinuous
  4. Antiparallel

A
Semiconservative
B
Parallel
C
Antiparallel
D
Discontinuous
Solution
Verified by Toppr

The correct option is D Antiparallel
The two polynucleotide chain in DNA are having opposite polarity and thus are arranged antiparallel i.e., if one chain is having polarity from 5'-->3' then other will have a polarity of 3'-->5'.
So, the correct answer is 'Antiparellel'.
