| double helix |
The shape of DNA, much like a spiral staircase or twisted ladder. The stairway's railings are composed of sugars and phosphates. Its sides contain the patterned base pairs: A, T, C, and G. When a cell divides for reproduction, the helix unwinds and splits down the middle like a zipper in order to copy itself.

| double helix |
A term often used to describe the configuration of the DNA molecule. The helix consists of two spiraling strands of nucleotides (a sugar, phosphate, and base), joined crosswise by specific pairing of the bases. See also Deoxyribonucleic acid; Base; Base pair.
