There's theoretically an infinite amount. Not only does the sequence and length of the amino acid change the resulting polypeptide, but also how the amino acid chain folds into its secondary, tertiary, and sometimes quaternary structure. The folding of proteins can be extremely complex.

What is the relationship between amino acids and proteins?
Proteins are made up of (long strings of) amino acids.Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. There are around 20 amino acids in total. By joining together they form long chain proteins.
Proteins are made from small units called?
Proteins are made up of smaller units called amino acids which are strung together to form proteins which can be of different sizes and shapes.
What small units join together to form proteins?
Mainly alpha-amino acids. Some proteins have cofactors which are not amino acids.
Amino acids are monomers used to build what?
A monomer is a small molecule that can easily bind to others. Amino acids are monomers, because they bond together to form proteins, which are polymers. Another example of a monomer is glucose, but it can bind to form polymers like cellulose.
Which monomer units combine to form proteins?
Amino acids
Proteins are polymers formed from?
Proteins are polymers made up of amino acids.
Are amino acids a protein?
Proteins are made of Amino Acids
What is the relationship between amino acids and proteins?

What molecule links together to form proteins?
Amino acids
What do multiple amino acids form?
Amino acids form chains which are called proteins.
What smaller molecules must be bonded together to make proteins?
amino acids are needed to form proteins.
Proteins are made from small units called?
Proteins are made up of smaller units called amino acids which are strung together to form proteins which can be of different sizes and shapes.
What A long string of amino acids forms?
A long strand of amino acids form proteins.
A long string of amino acids forms a what?
A long strand of amino acids form proteins.
How are enyzmes made from amino acids?
Amino acids are linked to form proteins which act as enzymes .
How are proteins distinguishing from each other?
By the order of the amino acids that form them. Proteins are distinguished from each other by the complexity of their polypeptide chains.
What small units join together to form proteins?
Mainly alpha-amino acids. Some proteins have cofactors which are not amino acids.
