My best opinion is B. Nucleotide because each nucleic corrosive monomer is made up of a sugar, a nitrogenous base, and a phosphate group.

Please correct any mistakes in my answer!! I'd be happy to fix it!! :)

The answer is the option B. Nucleotide. Nucleotides are organic molecules formed by three units :one or more phosphate groups, a sugar with five carbons (ribose or deoxyribose) and a nitrogenous base. Nucleotids are the units that form the two nucleic acid polymers: DNA and the RNA.
