The correct response is:
**Amino acids contain nitrogen; fatty acids and sugars do not.**
Amino acids have an amino group (-NH2) that contains nitrogen, which distinguishes them from fatty acids and sugars. Fatty acids are primarily made up of carbon and hydrogen, while sugars (carbohydrates) are made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.
