Answer:

B: folded chains of bonded glucose molecules.

Step-by-step explanation:

Chromosomes are made up of sections called genes. Genes code for particular proteins and each gene codes for a different substance.

Genes are made of DNA, and DNA is made up of the four bases adenine, guanine, cytosine, and tyrosine.

So to summarize DNA makes up genes, genes make up chromosomes, and chromosomes are made up of DNA.

Glucose is a sugar which is converted into glycogen when the body no longer needs glucose. Glucose is used as an energy source.
