Assuming ribose, thiamine, guanine and cytosine as choices.

Answer: Ribose

Step-by-step explanation:

DNA can be defined as the genetic material of the living organism which carries the information that has to be carried from one generation to another generation.

Each nucleotide is made of three sub units:

It consists of nitrogenous bases. These bases are attached complementary to each other.

The other components are phosphate group and deoxyribose, which means that the oxygen is removed from the 2'OH group.
