Answer: A) Gene

Step-by-step explanation:

A nucleotide is a single base (A,T,G,C) and thus does not contain enough information to encode even a single amino acid.

A codon is a triplet of nucleotides that encodes for a single amino acid. More than one amino acid is required to produce a protein.

An enzyme is a protein and does not contain DNA.
