The correct option is D Nucleotides in nucleic acid
DNA and RNA are the chain of polynucleotide which are joined by the phosphodiester bonds. The two nucleotide is linked by the phosphodiester bond. It is formed by the linkage between the 3' carbon atom of one sugar molecule and the 5' carbon atom of another.
So, the correct answer is option D.
