The correct response is:

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

This process involves the conversion of sugars into other metabolites through various biochemical pathways, ultimately allowing for the synthesis of amino acids by incorporating nitrogen and other necessary elements.
