Final answer:

Amino acids are synthesized from precursors produced by both glycolysis and the citric acid cycle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amino acids are synthesized from precursors produced by both glycolysis and the citric acid cycle. Glycolysis produces pyruvate which can enter the citric acid cycle through this pathway and produce the energy currency for ATP production.
