  • Question
  • DNA is made of repeating units called


  • Options
  • A. Nucleotides
  • B. Ribozomes
  • C. Peptides
  • D. Aminoacids

  • Correct Answer
  • Nucleotides 

    Explanation

    DNA is a very long chain polymer made up of thousands of repeating units called nucleotides.

     

    Nucleotide Unit is composed of a phosphate group, a pentose sugar, and a nitrogenous base.
