Nucleotide is a complex formed by combination of nitrogen base(adenine, guanine, thymine, cytosine, uracil), phosphate group and sugar moiety. It generally occurs in RNA and DNA.

Is DNA a single strand of nucleotides?

No, DNA is a double-stranded molecule composed of nucleotides. Each strand has a specific sequence of four different nucleotides: adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine. These two strands are connected by hydrogen bonds to form the double helix structure of DNA.

What are Molecules of DNA are referred to as?

The molecules of DNA are referred to as nucleotides, which are the building blocks of DNA. Nucleotides consist of a sugar (deoxyribose), a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base (adenine, thymine, cytosine, or guanine). Multiple nucleotides are strung together to form the double helix structure of DNA.
