The correct option is B Aromatic amino acid.
Erythrose-4-phosphate is an intermediate produced in the pentose phosphate pathway. It is involved in the biosynthesis of aromatic amino acids. All the carbons in phenylalanine and tyrosine are produced from erythrose-4-phosphate and phosphoenolpyruvate. Phenylalanine and tyrosine are aromatic amino acids. Thus the correct answer is option B.
