CHO
B
CHON
C
CHONP
D
CHONS
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Nucleic acids such as DNA and RNA contain carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphorus (CHON P).

Detailed explanation-2: -Course: Biology. CHNOPS stands for Carbon, Hydrogen, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Phosphorus, and Sulfur.

Detailed explanation-3: -CHON is a mnemonic acronym for the four most common elements in living organisms: carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen.

Detailed explanation-4: -Sometimes the acronym CHONP is used to include the element phosphorus which is crucial in DNA and RNA. Further, the acronym CHONPS may be used which is: CHON (Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen and phosphorus) plus (sulfur), which make up 99% of all living systems.
