Which of the following statements is true? A basolateral GLUT5 transporter moves glucose out of the intestinal epithelial cell. Fructose moves across the apical membrane by active transport. Glucose and galactose use different transporters in absorption. Glucose and galactose absorption uses an apical Na+-glucose SGLT symporter. None of the statements are true.
