polypeptide chains!
The correct order from smallest to largest is: amino acid, polypeptide, protein. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins, which are made up of one or more polypeptide chains. The polypeptide chains fold and interact to form the final protein structure.
Chains of amino acids are referred to as polypeptides. Proteins are created from one or more of these polypeptide molecules.
Proteins are complex molecules of amino acids.
Proteins are composed of long chains of amino acids that are linked together by peptide bonds. These amino acids can vary in sequence and length, giving each protein its unique structure and function.
Polypeptides are chains of amino acids linked by peptide bonds.
Amino acids form chains which are called proteins.

The building block unit of a polypeptide chain is an amino acid. Amino acids are organic compounds containing an amine group and a carboxylic acid group, along with a side chain that is specific to each amino acid. Multiple amino acids are linked together via peptide bonds to form a polypeptide chain.
Amino acids with positively charged side chains, such as lysine, arginine, and histidine, would make the overall charge of a polypeptide more positive when incorporated into the polypeptide chain. These amino acids have side chains that can interact with negatively charged groups, leading to a net positive charge in the polypeptide.
Proteins are first produced as polypeptide chains. This is known as the primary structure of the proteins. Polypeptide or protein chain comprised of amino acids connected each other with peptide bonds.
Polypeptides are short chains of amino acids, they have no functionality as a protein (long amino acid) would have.
