sugars and amino acids are made of the same elements except amino acids also contain nitrogen.
sugars and amino acids are both polymers
sugars and amino acids are made of exactly the same elements.
sugars and amino acids have the same structure.
Sugars (carbohydrates) are made of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Amino acids (proteins) are made of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen. So, they are made of the same elements except amino acids also contain nitrogen.
