A nucleotide is composed of a phosphate group, sugar, and nitrogen base. DNA is made of 2 strands of nucleotides linked together by covalent bonds between the phosphate and sugar of each nucleotide. The strands of nucleotides are linked together by hydrogen bonds creating DNA. Hope this helps and sorry if I made a mistake.
