active transport) of the following food breakdown products if their movement is into the blood capillaries or the lymph capillaries (lacteals).

Explanation / Answer

for MONOSACCHARIDES -absorption mechanism is from intestinal lumen via facillitated diffusion and co-transporters to the blood .

For FATTY ACIDS AND GLYCEROL- broken down and moves to small intestine then abosrption takes place via facillitated diffusion. (diffusion without ATP)

For AMINO ACIDS -absorption takes place via active co transport with h+ ions via a transporter called pepT1., into the small intestinal epithelial cells.

For water -simple absorption occurs via osmosis to the blood.

For Na.Ca2- that is for sodium and calcium transport so , they are always absorbed viz antitransporters i.e.;diffusion followed by exocytosis , some to the blood .where ca goes out of the cell and Na enters inside the cell.

For Cl ions -absorption simply occurs via diffusion the blood.
