Answer
A
Genes are located in a nucleotide.

DNA is found in a chromosome.
C
Nitrogen bases are located in the central rungs of a DNA ladder.
D
Chromosomes are found in the nucleus of a cell.

Explanation

A gene is a section of DNA, not a component located inside a single nucleotide. Nucleotides are the building blocks of DNA, while genes and chromosomes are larger structures made from DNA. Therefore, “Genes are located in a nucleotide” is the incorrect match.
