Solution

The correct option is A Nucleotides
Nucleic acids are the polymers of nucleotides which are form when a nitrogenous base is linked to a pentose sugar through an N-glycosidic bond and the further phosphate group is linked through a phosphodiester bond.
So the correct option is 'Nucleotides'.
