"DNA is located in the nucleus" is the best match.
Brief clarifications:
- Nucleotides are the building blocks of DNA, which forms a double helix; a gene is a specific sequence of nucleotides within that DNA.
- Genes are made of nucleotides (not the other way around).
- Chromosomes are structures of DNA plus proteins that contain many genes.
- Note: in eukaryotes most DNA is in the nucleus (also in mitochondria); in prokaryotes DNA is in the cytoplasm/nucleoid.
