DNA is made of chemical building blocks called nucleotides. These building blocks are made of three parts: a phosphate group, a sugar group and one of four types of nitrogen bases. The phosphate group has hydrogen, oxygen, and of course phosphate. The sugar group has hydrogen, oxygen, and carbon. And the four types of nitrogen bases are:

Thymine C5H6N2O2
