Protein synthesis from amino acids is part of the essential metabolism of the cell, as proteins are how the genetic information is expressed, and they perform several functions within the cell.

This process is an example of anabolism, a process where large molecules are formed from smaller ones. This kind of process requires energy, which is provided by ATP.

All of this means that c) anabolic pathway would be the right answer.
