The differences in nucleic acid atomic structure, namely the Hydrogen Bonds - 2 for an AT pair and 3 for a GC pair -, are way too small to be called 'subunits'.
The subunits making up nucleic acids are nucleotides
Nucleotides
carbohydrates dna subunits are nucleic acids. Nucleic acid subunits are nucleotides.
No, amino acids are the subunits which compose proteins. The subunits of genes, so to speak, are nucleic acids.
nucleotides
Nucleotides are smaller subunits that make up nucleic acids.

Nucleic acids are composed of monomers called nucleotides.
Both are made from smaller subunits that are joined by covalent bonds. In the case of proteins, these subunits are called amino acids. They are joined by special covalent bonds called peptide bonds. In the case of nucleic acids, the subunits are called nucleotides, which are a combination of a sugar (ribose or deoxyribose), phosphate group, and one of four possible bases (adenine, thymine, guanine, or cytosine). The nucleotides are covalently bonded along the "ladder" of the DNA molecule. Another feature of polymers is that the covalent bond that links the subunits (or monomers) is formed by dehydration synthesis, that is, a removal of a water molecule.
The four main categories of organic compounds in organisms are proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, and nucleic acids.
