Is consuming different, complete protein sources in a day really makes significant difference than obtaining all your protein from one or two individual complete protein source?

A complete protein is a protein that has all 9 essential amino acids in a certain amount making them "complete". Veggies and fruit for example have protein but it is incomplete, because they are lacking 1 or more amino acid in the chain or an inadequate amount of a certain acid to make it a complete protein.
Anything that comes from an animal (i.e. beef, chicken, fish, milk, eggs, etc.) is a complete protein. So there is no difference in say eating only chicken or having a large variety of meats in your daily diet, other than some protein sources will have a higher amount of protein than others per X amount of weight.
