<prompt> The tensile strength of wound after laparoscopic cholecystectomy in a 30 years old Woman depends uponReplacement of type 3 collagenExtensive cross linking of procollagenMacrophage activityinvasionGranulation tissue  <response>: Covalent cross-linking of the lysine residues provides tensile strength. The extent and type of crosslinking vary from tissue to tissue. In tissues such as tendons, in which tensile strength is crucial, collagen cross-linking is extremely high.Sabiston 20th edition Pg: 139
