The correct response that highlights the uniqueness of amino acids compared to fatty acids and sugars is:
Amino acids contain Nitrogen; fatty acids and sugars do not.
This is a defining characteristic of amino acids, as they are the only major biological macromolecules that contain nitrogen in their structure, which is crucial for their role in forming proteins. Fatty acids and sugars do not contain nitrogen in their structures.
