Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Glucose is absorbed through the intestine by a transepithelial transport system initiated at the apical membrane by the cotransporter SGLT-1; intracellular glucose is then assumed to diffuse across the basolateral membrane through GLUT2.
Detailed explanation-2: -Transcellular transport occurs through the epithelial cell, passing sequentially through transmembrane proteins in the apical and basal plasma membranes, and the intervening cytoplasm. It is the predominant route for most transepithelial transport.
