Which of the following statements regarding proteoglycans is FALSE? Proteoglycans help tissues resist mechanical compression. Pr

oteoglycans are a major component of compact, dense connective tissues like bone. The negative charge associated with proteoglycans attracts cations, which cause water to be sucked into the extracellular matrix. Proteoglycans are comprised of a core proteins with many glycosaminoglycan polysaccharide chains covalently linked to it. The glycosaminoglycans are very hydrophilic and therefore extend out to fill a large amount of space in the extracellular matrix.

these are protein that is divided into two classes which are  called large ans small Proteoglycans.

The large proteoglycans has a large number of highly sulfated glycosaminoglycan side-chains that tends to hold water and whereby making the tendon to resist compression while the  small proteoglycans are known to have a relationship with collagen fibrils which are known to regulate collagen fibril diameters. they help in signal regulation  usually  from the angle of intracellular compartments. the are known great for their large diversity especially in terms of different cores and different numbers of GAGs with different lengths and composition.
