Hello - Chords and Notes

[intervene]

hello, new guy here, wanting to learn

Can someone help me here:

What I want to know is, am I playing just the note D next to middle C?

Figure 2: https://img104.imageshack.us/img104/5203/dnexttomiddlecbw9.jpg

because it's located here:

Or am I playing G, A#, D which is the G minor Chord?

But then again, why is it telling me to play it in G minor? If the ledger lines in Figure 3 tell me that it is supposed to be next to middle C, why is the Gm necessary for it to be above the note?

Thank you! Sorry for the headache.
