c. DNA consists of two strands of nucleotides joined by hydrogen bonds.
d. every DNA nucleotide contains a sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogen base.

Answer:

short strands of DNA are contained in chromosomes inside the nucleus of a cell.

Explanation:

DNA is an acronym for deoxyribonucleic acid. It is composed of a sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogen base.

DNA consists of two strands of nucleotides joined by hydrogen bonds. This makes DNA appear in a double helical structure.

Long strands of DNA are contained in chromosomes inside the nucleus of a cell. Long strands of DNA in the nucleus are rolled into neat little bundles. Hence the statement; ''short strands of DNA are contained in chromosomes inside the nucleus of a cell'' is false.
