Answer:

Option D.

Explanation:

The above answer given is incorrect. Nucleotides consist of a phosphate group attached to a pentose sugar, with 5 carbons,  (deoxyribose sugar in the case of DNA) and the pentose sugar is also attached to a nitrogenous base. DNA is incorrect as nucleotides are the building block of DNA hence DNA is NOT a component of nucleotides.
