False.
Artries in general have thicker walls than veins. (thicker tunica media)
This is because artries need to withstand high blood pressure when the heart pumps the oxygenated blood to the rest of the body while veins carry blood (deoxygenated) at lower pressures, hence they are thinner compared to artries

Explanation:
The answer is; Pepsin
Pepsin is first secreted by the chief cells of the stomach wall and the inactive precursor called pepsinogen. When pepsinogen interacts with the acidic environment of the stomach due to hydrochloric acid, it is turned to pepsin. The pepsin breaks down large protein molecules to smaller molecules.
Answer:
THYROID GLAND
Explanation:
Thyroid gland functions in metabolisms by activities of thyroid cells.This cells withdraws Iodine from metabolites and combine it with amino acid tyrosine for productions of Thyroid hormones:
ThyroxineT3,(20%)
TriiodothyronineT4(80%). This production is under the influence of Thyroid stimulating hormones,regulated by the pituitary gland,
T3 and T4 increase calorinogenesis, (liberation of heat from digestion to supply energy,and oxygen consumption of the heart.)
Deficiency of thyroid hormones are goiters, hypothyroidism, and hyperthyroidism
