Mitosis is the division that results in two “daughter” cells. Both of these daughter cells have the same number of chromosomes as the “parent” cell.
Mitosis consists of 4 phases: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.
Prophase: the DNA is copied and the chromosomes pair up
Metaphase: the chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell
Anaphase: sister chromatids are pulled apart from each other towards opposite sides of the cell
Telophase: the cell begins to pinch in the middle and separates into two identical daughter cells

Explanation:
Sodium (Na) and Chlorine (Cl) are two electrolytes that play important role in the absorption of water and nutrients in the small intestine. However, as mentioned in the question, the release of sodium and chlorine would lead to a loss of water in the intestines. This is because of the OSMOTIC phenomenon.
Osmosis is the movement of water molecules from a region of high concentration of water/low concentration of solute to a region of low concentration of water/high concentration of solute via a semipermeable membrane. In this case, the Na+ and Cl- ions serve as the solutes, which when released out of the intestine causes the solution in the intestines to be HYPOTONIC compared to the intestinal environment. This causes an OSMOTIC GRADIENT.
This osmotic gradient i.e. difference in concentration provokes osmotic flow of water from the intestines, which has a low solute/high water concentration, to the outside of the intestines, which has a high solute/low water concentration. Hence, water is lost from the intestine because the solute concentration becomes low when sodium and chlorine ions are released.
Answer:
The movement of molecules across a membrane without the input of energy is known as passive transport. When energy (ATP) is needed, the movement is known as active transport. Active transport moves molecules against their concentration gradient, from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration.
