Among the choices given, the one that accurately describes the structure of DNA is D. DNA is in the form of anti-parallel strands twisted as a double helix. Moreover, DNA is primarily made up of nucleotides which consists of a nitrogenous base, at least one phosphate group, and a five-carbon sugar.
