Now, pancreatic amylase breaks down the polysaccharide into disaccharides. And those disaccharides consist of only two monomers of sugar. Now, our cells cannot actually absorb disaccharides. They're simply too large. So what happens is on the membrane of our anterocytes, the cells in our small test, and we have specialized types of digestive enzymes that can break down disaccharides into their individual monomers. Now, the membrane of our anterocy is known as a Brush Water because it consists of microvilli.
