C. active transport driven directly or indirectly by metabolic energy

Explanation:

The intestinal mucosa is the tissue that lines the inner walls of the intestines. It is characterized by the pleated appearance, which facilitates the absorption of nutrients already deferred and the formation of fecal cake. Most nutrients are absorbed by this region through active transport directly or indirectly driven by metabolic energy.
