  3. A pancreatic duct, a branch of a hepatic vein, and a branch of a hepatic portal vein - Incorrect. The pancreatic duct is not part of the hepatic portal triad.
  4. A pancreatic duct, a branch of a hepatic artery, and a branch of a hepatic portal artery - Incorrect. The pancreatic duct is not part of the hepatic portal triad.
  5. A bile duct, a pancreatic duct, and a branch of the hepatic portal vein - Incorrect. The pancreatic duct is not part of the hepatic portal triad.
