Sugar molecules must be rearranged through metabolic pathways to form amino acids.
Sugar molecules must be rearranged through metabolic pathways to form amino acids.

Sugar molecules must undergo hydrolysis so they can react with nitrogen to form amino acids.
Sugar molecules must undergo hydrolysis so they can react with nitrogen to form amino acids.

Sugar molecules must be stored as fat to be later converted into amino acids.
Sugar molecules must be stored as fat to be later converted into amino acids.

Sugar molecules must undergo photosynthesis to produce energy, which can drive amino acid synthesis

Answer 1

The correct response is:

Sugar molecules must be rearranged through metabolic pathways to form amino acids.

This accurately reflects that sugars (like glucose) can be converted into other organic compounds, including amino acids, through various metabolic processes, particularly in the context of cellular metabolism and biosynthesis.
