DNA or the deoxyribonucleic acid is the nucleic acid that remains confined within the nucleus of the eukaryotic cell. It is never released into the cytoplasm under normal conditions.
In scientific experiments and genome analysis, when the DNA needs to be released, the nucleus is ruptured and DNA released. As an extra information, I would tell you that a single strand of DNA is actually very long, stretching upto 2 metres. But it fits into a tiny nucleus due to a mechanism called super-coiling.

The nucleotide bases store the information.
There is no specific term for living material within a cell that is confined to the nucleus. The nucleus does, however contain the DNA that is the blueprint for all protein production in the cell.

The smallest structure is a nucleotide, which is the building block of DNA. Multiple nucleotides come together to form DNA, which is contained in the chromosome. The nucleus is the largest structure, containing all the chromosomes in a cell.

In eukaryotic cells, DNA is confined to the nucleus, except for the DNA in the mitochondria and chloroplasts.

Nucleotide molecules connect with each other in phosphate. Nucleotides are composed of three parts: phosphate, deoxyribose and the nitrogen base.
