Solution

The correct option is A

in the nucleus


Most of a cell's DNA is located in the nucleus of the cell (where it is called nuclear DNA). But a small amount of DNA can also be found in the mitochondria (where it is called mitochondrial DNA). In plant cells, DNA is also found in chloroplasts (where it is called chloroplast DNA).
