A) facilitated diffusion to move glucose down its concentration gradient.
B) osmosis to directly absorb glucose.
C) facilitated diffusion to move glucose up its concentration gradient.
D) active transport to move glucose up its concentration gradient.
E) active transport to move glucose down its concentration gradient.
