The amino acid sequence of each polypeptide that determines what three-dimensional shape in turn determines a protein’s
A
Function
B
Structure
C
Fate
D
Limitations
E
Location
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The primary structure of a protein-its amino acid sequence-drives the folding and intramolecular bonding of the linear amino acid chain, which ultimately determines the protein’s unique three-dimensional shape.

Detailed explanation-2: -The amino acid sequence of a protein determines its three-dimensional shape.

Detailed explanation-3: -The overall three-dimensional structure of a polypeptide is called its tertiary structure. The tertiary structure is primarily due to interactions between the R groups of the amino acids that make up the protein.

Detailed explanation-4: -The shape of a protein is solely determined by the amino acid sequence in the polypeptide chain. That’s right; it is just like DNA, unique code makes a unique design. Protein folding is the result of physical properties of amino acids’ side chains and their interactions with the environment around them.
