If you look at the strucure of a triglyceride, it is composed of 3 fatty acids and a glycerol, If you hydrolyze the bonds between them, they will break.
fatty acids and glycerol
glycerol and fatty acids
The mechanism of the hydrolysis of lipid is known as catabolism of the lipids. This is a process through which lipids are digested and broken down to one molecule of glycerol and three molecules of fatty acids.
Three fatty acids and a glycerol molecule make a single tryglyceride and 3 water molecules.

fatty acids and glycerol
A fat molecule forms when glycerol joins with three fatty acids as three water molecule are removed during dehydration reaction.
glycerol and carboxylic acid combines to form a lipids.

Fat molecules are made up of glycerol linked to fatty acids.
fatty acids
Hydrolysis is the process of breaking down a compound with the action of water. The products of the acid catalyzed hydrolysis of a fat are fatty acids and glycerol.
