Fifty years of making downwind sailing products means that we know what you need to sail off the wind, and we have a selection of poles and related fittings to do the job right for your boat. I can't imagine sailing downwind without my whisker pole. I make offshore passages for a living and I count on my Forespar* whisker pole.
Internal and external hydrogen bonds stabilize the DNA molecule. The two strands of DNA stay together by H bonds that occur between complementary nucleotide base pairs. Two hydrogen bonds occur between the adenosine and the thymine base pairs, and between the cytosine and the guanine there are three.

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. Bases.
