An organism's genetic code is determined by

Athe sugar-phosphate bonds in its DNA.
Bthe type of protein present in its cells.
Cthe length of the DNA strands in its cells.
Dthe nucleotide sequence in its DNA.

Verified Answer :

Dthe nucleotide sequence in its DNA

Answer:

The nucleotide sequence in its DNA.

Explanation:

Genetic code may be defined as the triplet code of the nucleotide sequence that passes the genetic information of the organisms. Each amino acid is specified by the codons.

The genetic code of an organism can be determined by the sequence of the nucleotide present in the DNA molecule. The information stored in the genetic code is further translated into a protein product.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).
