Solution

The correct option is B Uracil
Uracil is a pyrimidine with one six-membered ring.

Adenylic acid is the same as adenosine monophosphate, a nucleotide which has the nitrogenous base adenine, ribose and a phosphate group linked together.

Cholesterol is a lipid which has four rings and a hydrocarbon side-chain.

Adenosine is a nucleoside. It is made of adenine and ribose, i.e. it is adenylic acid minus the phosphate group.
