Understand that the question is asking for the full form of the abbreviation 'DNA' in the context of its molecular structure.
Recall that DNA is a molecule that carries genetic information in living organisms and is composed of nucleotides containing a sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base.
Recognize that the sugar in DNA is 'deoxyribose', which is a sugar lacking one oxygen atom compared to ribose found in RNA.
Combine the components: 'Deoxyribo' refers to the sugar, 'nucleic' refers to the nucleotides, and 'acid' refers to the acidic nature of the phosphate backbone.
Conclude that the correct full form of DNA is 'Deoxyribonucleic acid'.
