Question

What do the specific types and sequence of amino acids determine the structure and function of?proteinsstarchesnucleic acidslipids

Answer 1

Protein structure and function are governed by the exact types and order of amino acids. The arrangement of glucose molecules in starch determines both its structure and its purpose. The particular nucleotide sequence governs the structure and functionality of nucleic acids, such as DNA and RNA. Contrarily, the arrangement of fatty acid chains and other components determines lipids rather than the order of amino acids directly.
