Question:

The only sugar normally absorbed in the intestine against a concentration gradient is

  1. Glucose
  2. Mannose
  3. Xylose
  4. Mannose

Correct Answer: A

Explanation:

Particularly important dietary carbohydrates include starch and disaccharides such as lactose and sucrose. None of these molecules can be absorbed for the simple reason that they cannot cross cell membranes unaided and, unlike the situation for monosaccharides, there are no transporters to carry them across. Glucose requires no carrier to pass through intestine.
