Question: Which statement is true regarding the trans - membrane transport of monosaccharides ( sugars ) from the intestinal lumen. Glalactose moves across the apical membrane

Which statement is true regarding the trans-membrane transport of monosaccharides (sugars) from the intestinal lumen.
Glalactose moves across the apical membrane using an active transporter based mechanism.
Glucose transport only involves apical Na+-glucose SGLT symporter activity.
Different transporter proteins independently move glucose or galactose molecules across cell membranes.
Basal transport of glucose only requires facilitated transporter activity
The basal facilitated transporter, GLUT2 moves glucose out of the intestinal epithelial cells into the circulation.
