**Option B:** Similarly, without the specific option, we can't comment.
**Option C:** If this were an **essential amino acid**, it would be incorrect to choose it.
**Option D:** If this were an **essential amino acid**, it would be incorrect to choose it.
**Clinical Pearl / High-Yield Fact**
Remember, **tyrosine** can be synthesized from **phenylalanine**, so it's not always essential, unless **phenylalanine** is deficient.
