 DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is a double-stranded molecule made up of nucleotides, not amino acids. It carries the genetic information in the form of genes, which are specific sequences of DNA that provide instructions for the synthesis of proteins and other molecules. DNA is found in the nucleus of cells, but it can also be found in other cell organelles like mitochondria and chloroplasts. DNA is not a protein but a nucleic acid.

Option 2 is the correct answer.
