Hi, nice question.
Let me explain this to you.
There are two types of nucleic acids that form amide links between their phosphate and sugar. The hydrogen bonding comes in hand when there s base pairing.
The two bases are called purines which are larger ones, adenine and guanine. Adenine forms two hydrogen bonds with Thymine. While Guanine forms three hydrogen bonds with Cytosine.
To know how many hydrogen bond links are there, we need to know the base pairing strusture.
Hope you get it. Thank you.
