Name of substance that DNA is composed of?

DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is a double stranded polynucleotide. It is made of two anti-parallel strands of many individual units called nucleotides joined together. The nucleotides themselves consist of a phosphate group, a pentose sugar (in the nucleotides of DNA the pentose sugar present is deoxyribose) and a nitrogenous base (in the nucleotides of DNA the bases are adenine, thymine, guanine and cytosine).
