- Which of the following statements best describes the absorption of glucose? Absorption of glucose requires digestion by aminopeptidases on absorptive epithelial microvilli before absorption of the carbohydrate smaller units such as glucose. Absorption of glucose requires an electrochemical gradient of high extracellular K+ set up by primary active transport. Absorption of glucose occurs at villi and crypts mainly in the duodenum where amylases break down carbohydrates into glucose.
