-) some substances are absorbed into the capillaries by active uptake.
0 explain why active uptake is sometimes necessary

Active uptake (which I think you mean active transport) is important when the concentration gradient is against that of a certain substance, so it doesn't cross the membrane through diffusion or passive transport. It is sometimes necessary if a substance needs to move across a membrane but can't do so due to electrical charge or that there is a substance on the other side of the membrane preventing diffusion.

Explanation:

answer: accepted answer: aquatic animals use the oxygen dissolved in water to carry out respiration. since the amount of dissolved oxygen in water is low as compared to the amount of oxygen in the air, therefore the rate of breathing in aquatic animals is much faster than it is in terrestrial animals.
