Answer:
The correct answer will be contains coded information for the creation of proteins.
Explanation:
DNA or deoxy-ribonucleic acid is a large molecule which acts stores and acts as hereditary material of organisms. DNA exist in organisms in double helical structure with each strand made of repeating units called nucleotides.
Each nucleotide comprises of three subunits: 5-carbon sugar called deoxyribose, a phosphate group and 4 types of nitrogen-containing bases which are adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G) and (C) cytosine.
Alternate sugar and phosphate forms the backbone of DNA while the order of nitrogen bases in DNA determines the instructions of protein and codes for protein.The segment of DNA which codes for the synthesis of cell's protein is called a gene. The stable configuration of the DNA molecule allows it to act as a template for the replication of new DNA molecule as well as for the transcription and translation process.
Thus, contains coded information for the creation of proteins is the correct answer.
