Detailed Solution

Glucose and amino acids (e.g., glycine) are absorbed by active transport in the small intestine. They are absorbed mainly by Na+- dependent secondary active transport.

(1) Glycerol and fatty acids move from duodenum into the mucosal epithelial cells as micelles. Chylomicrons contain
triglycerides coated with proteins. 

(2) Maltose is not absorbed. Monosaccharides like glucose and fructose are absorbed in the small intestine. Only some vitamins synthesised by intestinal bacteria and some water and electrolytes are absorbed in the large intestine. Cholesterol absorption involves emulsification, formation of micelles and subsequent reassembly into chylomicrons for transport through the lymphatic system into the bloodstream.

(4) Na+ is absorbed by active transport.
