How is the process of active transport beneficial to human living systems?
A. Active transport moves substances against a concentration gradient, allowing fluid compartment volume ionic differences to be maintained. B. Active transport allows the fluid lost at the capillary–interstitial compartment in-terface to be returned by lymph flow to the systemic circulation. C.
