Answer:
The distance between two consecutive base pair is 0.34 nm (0. 34X10−9m). The length of DNA for human diploid cell is 6. 6X109 bp x 0.

Explanation:
Each nucleotide base of one strand is paired in the same plane with a base of the other strand. Since, one complete turn of the double helix is 3.4 nm long and each of which has 10 base pairs, the distance between two consecutive base pairs should be 3.4/10 = 0.34 nm.
