Which of the following statements about beta-pleated sheets (b-sheets) is false?
 a. Adjacent chains of amino acids that form b-sheets always run in the same direction (N --> C or C --> N).
 b. They arise due to cooperative formation of hydrogen bonds.
 c. The hydrogen bonds in this structure are essentially interstrand rather than intrastrand.
 d. The side chains in the pleated b-sheet are oriented perpendicular to the plane of the sheet.
