Answer:
False
Explanation:
The most specific feature of cardiac muscles is the presence of intercalated discs. Intercalated disc connects the ends of cardiac muscle fibers to one another. The discs have desmosomes and gap junctions. The function of desmosomes is to hold the cardiac fibers together. The gap junctions of cardiac fibers allow muscle action potentials to spread from one cardiac muscle fiber to another. These gap junctions have tubular connexons that form channels and connect the cytosol of adjacent cardiocytes to allow the flow of ions and spread of action potential from one cell to another.
Arteries are blood vessels responsible for carrying oxygen-rich blood away from the heart to the body. Veins are blood vessels that carry blood low in oxygen from the body back to the heart for reoxygenation. Arteries and veins are two of the body's main type of blood vessels.

Answer:
Fatty acid chains
Explanation:
A Triglyceride molecule is made up of 3 fatty acid chains and 1 glycerol molecule held together by ester bonds.
Digestion of lipids using lipases hydrolysed the ester bonds to release 1 molecule of glycerol and 3 molecules of fatty acid chains.
