Solution

The correct option is B Galactose
Transportation of galactose is most rapid as it attaches with sodium ion and easily dragged by the protein carries so it is very easy to transport it while glucose and fructose require energy to transport as they are transported by active transport.
So the correct option is 'Galactose'.
