Operations with conjugation in groups



Hello,

Is it true that conjugation preserves both unions and intersections ?

That is, if A, B are subgroups (or possibly just subsets) of a group G, and g is any element of G, then do either of the following hold?

(1) (A /\ B)^g = A^g /\ B^g

(2) (A \/ B)^g = A^g \/ B^g

where the exponent denotes conjugation by g: X^g = gXg^{-1} (or, if you prefer, X^g = g^{-1} X g) ?


Any remarks appreciated. Thanks
.
