Answer:

Phosphodiester Bond

Step-by-step explanation:

Nucleotides are linked with a phosphodiester bond formed between the phosphates group present in Nucleotides.

Nucleic acids including DNA and RNA in living organisms. Phosphodiester bond between nucleotide is broken to supply the energy for nucleic acid synthesis and supply energy between the 5' and 3' carbon atoms in Nucleic acids.

Hence, the correct answer is "Phosphodiester Bond".
