Question

Select the CORRECT match of the digested products in humans gave in Column I with their absorption site and mechanism in Column II. 

Options

• Column I	Column II
  Glycine, glucose	In the small intestine, active absorption

• Column I	Column II
  Fructose, \[\ce{Na+}\]	Small intestine passive absorption

• Column I	Column II
  Glycerol, fatty acids	Duodenum, move as chylomicrons

• Column I	Column II
  Cholesterol, maltose	In the large intestine, active absorption

Answer 1

Column I	Column II
Glycine, glucose	In the small intestine, active absorption

Explanation:

By active absorption, substances like amino acids, glucose, and electrolytes like \[\ce{Na+}\] are taken up by the blood. In the small intestine, fructose is absorbed through facilitated absorption and \[\ce{Na+}\] through active absorption. Lacteals take up cholesterol and fatty acids as chylomicrons, which are then released into the bloodstream. Maltase converts maltose into glucose, which is absorbed in the small intestine by simple diffusion.
