The correct option is option (d).
A nucletoide consists of three main components which include a phosphate group, a nitrogen containing base, and of course a five carbon sugar.
The nitrogenous base consists of either a pyrimidine or a purine element.
The five carbon sugar however might either be a deoxyribose in the DNA molecules or simply ribose in the RNA molecules.
