Solution

The correct option is A Genome, chromosome, gene, nucleotide
The genome of an organism constitues all the genes present in the chromosomes. The chromosome contains DNA and the segments of DNA are genes. DNA has a complex structure model with two parallel threads of nucleotides coiled around each other. This arrangement is known as ‘double helix’.
