---------
However, you can also refer to the nucleic acid by chain (each strand of DNA will be its own chain) - http://cbm.msoe.edu/includes/modules/jmolTutorial/jmolNuclei...
-------
In DNA or RNA, a nucleic acid chain is also called a strand.
A DNA molecule typically contains two strands whereas most RNA molecules contain a single strand
The DNA Molecule consist of two polynucleotides chains (strands), held together by the hydrogen bonding between their bases.
The two Strands are wrapped plectonemically to form a double helix.

----------
A DNA chain, also called a strand, has a sense of direction, - http://gepard.bioinformatik.uni-saarland.de/old_html/html/Bi... - page 4
----------
The two strands of DNA run in opposite directions to each other and are therefore anti-parallel.

The structure of DNA of all species comprises two helical chains each coiled round the same axis, - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA
