dna gives codes for 1 of20 amino acids. amino acids form chains and a complete chain is a protein.
Even with 20 amino acids, there can be innumerable combinations. Since amino acids can be repeated in the polypeptide chain, it is easy to create a variety of proteins. It must also be taken to account that just one protein is made from around 50 amino acids minimum, which greatly increases the diversity of the protein. Even with just 50 amino acids, the different arrangements can be 3.04*1064, which is a significant amount of proteins that can be made from arrangements of just 50 amino acids.
sequence and number of amino acids is different
Proteins are made from amino acids, there are different types of proteins in our body ane the order of the amino acids determines the type of amino acid cus it sure helped me :)
By their side chains. All amino acids have this structure: HOOC- C - NH2 Attached to that middle C is the side chain. They can have many different properties- They can be aromatic, polar, lipophilic, basic, acidic, Sulfur containing, among others There are 20 amino acids inside the human body, each has a different structure and function, due to its properties.
Amino acids all have an amino group attached to them. There are 20 different amino groups, and therefore 20 different types of amino acids.

There are 22 amino acids that humans require for life. however, there are hundreds of different kinds of amino acids.
9
so they can find out about the early solar system and how planets were formed
The "R" group is different in different kinds of amino acids. The "R" group can be a number of different molecules that are attached to the alpha carbon.
They have varying numbers, as different amino acids form different polypetide chains, which form different amino acids in the way they become folded to suit their function
There are 20 different amino acids. They differ from one another because they all have different side chains.
proteins are made up of different amino acids linked together

there is only 20 amin acid in our bodies but we only use 11 of them
There are 20 different amino acids in the DNA sequence
