Answer: B. Proteins

The correct answer is B. Proteins.
Proteins are unique among the major energy-yielding nutrients because they contain nitrogen in addition to carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. This nitrogen is a key part of the amino groups that make up amino acids, which are the building blocks of all proteins.
