ANSWER; NUCLEIC ACIDS

The phosphate groups allow the nucleotides to link together, creating the sugar-phosphate backbone of the nucleic acid while the nitrogenous bases provide the letters of the genetic alphabet. These components of nucleic acids are constructed from five elements: carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphorous.
