Question

The absorption of fructose by intestinal mucosa is​

Answer 1

Answer:

facilitated transport

Explanation:

Sucrose is digested by enzyme sucrose into glucose and fructose in the small intestine. Fructose diffuses through the mucous cells of intestine by the process of facilitated diffusion. It uses an integral membrane proteins  known as exosphere transporter GLUT - 2 to move polar or charged substances across the hydrophobic regions of the membrane.

Answer 2

Answer:

This process is called facilitated transport.

Explanation:

Facilitated transport :

In the small intestine, the enzyme sucrase converts sucrose to glucose and fructose. Fructose diffuses through the intestine's mucosa cells via a process known as facilitated transfer. It employs an integral membrane protein known as hexose transporter GLUT - 2 to transport polar or charged substances across the membrane's hydrophobic regions.
