Answer:

Nucleotides

Step-by-step explanation:

The basic, repeating subunit of nucleic acids are nucleotides. Each nucleotide is made up of a sugar (5 carbon ring), nitrogenous base (adenine, guanine, cytosine, or thymine), and phosphate. These subunits connect with each other via phosphodiester bonds.
