Absorption of glucose takes place with the help of a carrier protein that carries out the co-transport of glucose along with two sodium ions. Absorption of amino acids also takes place by a similar mechanism with the help of a sodium-dependent co-transporter. Absorption of fructose occurs by facilitated diffusion, and fatty acids and glycerol by a simple diffusion mechanism. 
So, the correct option is 'Amino acids and glucose'.
