The answer is the fourth one (D): fibrin.

Explanation for each option:

  • Albumin: This is a protein found in blood plasma, but it is not involved in the formation of blood clots. Its primary function is to maintain osmotic pressure and transport substances in the blood.

  • Globulin: This is a group of proteins in the blood plasma that includes antibodies and enzymes, but it is not responsible for forming the framework of a blood clot.

  • Collagen: This is a structural protein found in connective tissues, but it is not involved in the formation of blood clots.

  • Fibrin: This is the correct answer. Fibrin is a sticky protein that forms a mesh-like framework during the blood clotting process. It is produced from fibrinogen, a soluble plasma protein, through the action of the enzyme thrombin.

In summary, fibrin is the protein responsible for forming the meshlike framework of a blood clot.
