In part, yes. The primary structure is just the sequence of amino acids. If the chain consists of many amino acids, then obviously the chain will be longer and the protein bigger. However, the secondary through quaternary structures have more to do with the way that chain is folded into a space.
What else can I help you with?
Is protein larger in size compared to a polypeptide?
A protein is a polypeptide.
How would plants that exhibit secondary growth differ in size and structure from plants that exhibit only primary growth?
someone please answer this question...
Proteins differ from one another because?
Because the number of amino acids and their exact sequence in the polypeptide chain is different for each protein; this is called the primary structure, and it determines the secondary structure of the protein - the unique three-dimensional shape that the protein can fold into.

Why polypeptide chains are always called as protein but Proteins are not always polypeptide chains?
Peptides (from the Greek πεπτίδια, "small digestibles") are short polymers formed from the linking, in a defined order, of α-amino acids. The link between one amino acid residue and the next is known as an amide bond or a peptide bond. Proteins are polypeptide molecules (or consist of multiple polypeptide subunits). The distinction is that peptides are short and polypeptides/proteins are long.
What are the lattice dimensions of the crystal structure being studied?
The lattice dimensions of the crystal structure being studied refer to the size and arrangement of the repeating units in the crystal lattice. These dimensions are important for understanding the physical and chemical properties of the material.

Hemoglobin structure is tertiary or quaternary?
Hemoglobin is made up of four "monomeric subunits" each of which is known as a polypeptide and about the size of many normal individual proteins. Each of these subunits has its own tertiary structure and is about the size of another similar globular protein called Myoglobin. Quarternary structures ONLY exist in proteins with subunits, which are essentially four protein "parts" that are joined together (in this case with Hydrophobic and Ionic interactions) once they are already folded (tertiary structure). 4+ structure is how they fit together. So Myoglobin, with only one subunit does not have a quarternary structure, but does have primary, secondary and tertiary. Insulin, for example has two subunits and it too will have a quarternary structure, or how both subunits fit together
What does micromorphic mean?
Micromorphic generally refers to something that is very small in size or scale. It can also specifically refer to a material or structure that has multiple length scales or features on a very small level.
