    Solution

    Elastic fibres in the arteries remain intact and well-preserved in ancient mummies. These fibres provide elasticity and durability to arteries. Information Booster:

    1. Elastic fibres are composed of elastin and fibrillin.
    2. They allow arteries to stretch and recoil.
    3. Low decomposition rates aid preservation in dry climates.
