Solution

Amino acids monosaccharides like glucose, electrolytes like $\mathrm{Na}^{+}$are absorbed into the blood by active transport. Fructose and some amino acids are absorbed with the help of the carrier ions like $\mathrm{Na}^{+}$by facilitated transport. Fatty acid and glycerol cannot be absorbed into the blood. They are first incorporated into small droplets called micelles, which move into the intestinal mucosa.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
