Deoxyribose is a sugar and phosphate and this is what makes up the outside of the double-helix structure. There are four different types and they are as follows: Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine, and Thymine. Adenine goes with Thymine and Guanine goes with Cytosine. These will always go together. It does not matter which side they are on, but they will always pair up together. There is no other reason as to why these pair with each other except to create a chemical balance. Adenine and Thymine share two Hydrogen atoms and Guanine and Cytosine share three Hydrogen
