Correct answer is D.

A particular sequence of bases in a segment of DNA important to cells because some base sequences code for protein production. 

These proteins provide structure and support for cells. On a larger scale, they also allow the body to move. These proteins bind and carry atoms and small molecules within cells and throughout the body.
