Answer:
This condensation reaction is similar to that in which a peptide bond is formed between two amino acids (Chapter 3). Thus a single nucleic acid strand is a phosphate-pentose polymer (a polyester) with purine and pyrimidine bases as side groups. The links between the nucleotides are called phosphodiester bonds.

Answer:
A chemical bond between the phosphate group of one nucleotide and the sugar of a neighboring nucleotide holds the backbone together. Chemical bonds (hydrogen bonds) between the bases that are across from one another hold the two strands of the double helix together.
