And our body does not contain the proteins to digest to break down these betaglycolytic linkages. So we can only break down the alphaglyic acidic linkages. Now, the process by which the majority of the cells in our body actually absorb the glucose across the cell membrane involves passive diffusion. And that basically means it doesn't actually need to use any type of ATP molecules. And that's because glucose normally travels across the cell membrane down its electrochemical gradient. However, certain specialized cells in our body use active transport to actually move our glucose against electrochemical gradient.
