Questions and Answers

Which of the following best describes the process by which collagen molecules assemble into fibrils?

  • The process is influenced by the overlapping individual triple strands.
  • The process is independent of the diameter of the fibrils. (correct)
  • The process is influenced by the regular axial periodic pattern.
  • The process is dependent on the diameter of the fibrils.
  • What is the main characteristic of the axial periodic pattern in collagen fibrils?

  • The pattern is staggered.
  • The pattern is dependent on fibril diameter.
  • The pattern is a consequence of overlapping triple strands. (correct)
  • The pattern is irregular.
  • What is the purpose of the D-banding pattern in collagen fibrils?

  • The pattern is a result of fibril diameter.
  • The pattern determines the diameter of the fibrils.
  • The pattern provides structural stability to the fibrils. (correct)
