Step-by-step solution
According to the NCERT Biology textbook on Digestion and Absorption: Small amounts of monosaccharides like glucose, amino acids, and some electrolytes like chloride ions are generally absorbed by simple diffusion. Thus, Simple diffusion (A) matches with Glucose (II). Substances like fructose and some amino acids are absorbed with the help of carrier ions like Na ⁺ . This mechanism is called facilitated transport. Thus, Facilitated transport (B) matches with Fructose (III). Active transport occurs against the concen
