Answer:

E. All choices are accurate representations of DNA.

Step-by-step explanation:

DNA consists of a shape like a common known 'Double Helix' which is possible because it is made up of building blocks (chemical) known to us as nucleotides. Nucleotides are made up of monomers such as

  1. phosphate group
  2. a sugar group
  3. One of four types of nitrogen bases (Four types of nitrogen bases...adenine, guanine, cytosine, or thymine)

DNA is a polymer which is, yes, made up of the monomers 'nucleotides'
