Answer:

False

Explanation:

The sugars on the basis of the number of glucose or sugar units can be categorized into two categories:

1. Simple sugars: The sugars which contain one or two sugar units called mono and disaccharides.

2. Complex sugars: The sugars which contain more than two sugar units are complex sugars.

The simple sugars like glucose, galactose are easily digested by the digestive system of the human body and easily absorbed by the cells.

Since the simple sugars or simple sugars are small in their structure compared to the complex carbohydrates therefore false is the correct answer.

a mechanism that is effective in maintaining a normal glomerular blood pressure only if the systemic mean arterial pressure rema

rodikova [14]

A mechanism that is effective in maintaining a normal glomerular blood pressure only if the systemic mean arterial pressure remains between 80 and 180 mm hg is called renal autoregulation.

<h3>What is renal autoregulation?</h3>

Autoregulation is the inner characteristic of blood vessels present in end organs, like heart, kidney, and mind, by which they dilate or constrict in response to pressure changes, thus help to keep the blood flow generally steady.
Usually our body tries to regulate our blood pressure in range of 50 to 150 mm Hg.
Regulation of renal blood flow and glomerular blood pressure in kidneys is called renal autoregulation.
There are 3 mechanisms of renal blood flow namely myogenic response (MR), tubuloglomerular feedback (TGF) and third mechanism that is independent of TGF but slower than MR.

How is the cell structure related to its function in your body

Nastasia [14]

<span>A cell with a large surface area or with microvilli (which increase surface area) are specialized for absorption. Many cells have different protein markers on their surface to accept certain specific hormones and allow them into the cell, like muscle cells reacting to adrenaline. Muscle cells are long and able to contract, allowing for overall muscle contraction and body movement. </span>

<span>I guess the hormone part I mentioned applies to chemicals; endocrine cells produce hormones that other cells would not. </span>

<span>For organelles, muscle cells don't have many of the organelles that other cells do because of their very specialized functions. </span>

<span>I hope this helps, it would literally take volumes of text books to answer this question completely.</span>
