    D. Hydrogen bonds between complementary base pairs89

    Explanation:

    A DNA molecule is composed of two long polynucleotide chains made of four types of nucleotide subunits, two purines (adenine and guanine) and two pyrimidines (cytosine and thymine). These nucleotides are joined by covalent bonds forming a phosphate-sugar backbone. These strands are held to one another with hydrogen bonds between the base portions of complementary nucleotides.

    I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!
