Solution

The correct option is D C and D
A deoxyribonucleotide structure contains pentose sugar (deoxyribose), nitrogenous base, and phosphoric acid,

glycosidic bond (between C1' and nitrogenous base) and phosphoester bond (between C5' and phosphoric acid).

The phosphodiester bond is the connecting link between two consecutive nucleotides. Hydrogen bonds are non-covalent bonds present between the nitrogenous bases and are responsible for the DNA duplex structure.
