Best Answer

The amino acids link together to form a polypeptide chain, and the order of the amino acids in that chain determines the shape of the primary structure of a protien. It ultimately determines the shape and function of a protien.

The sequence of Amino Acids will determine the protein that they form. The different structures of proteins determines the tasks that they are to do.

(This is different from DNA because it is made up of nucleic acids, not amino acids)
