How to get the id of the URI, to insert it to database after submit? Codeigniter

I have a problem where I need to submit or redirect to the page of the same uri.

The main issue here is the url of the id was not read or was not get, How can I get it to insert to my data.

After I submit the page there is an error 

An uncaught Exception was encountered
Type: ArgumentCountError

for example my URL is: http://localhost/project/groups/view_activity/1

then I need to submit it to the controller /posts/create_activity

Here is the Controller /posts/create_activity

public function create_activity($id){

    $this->post_model->create_activity();

    redirect('groups/view_activity/'.$id);
}

And my Model, which I expect that the $id is the URI

public function create_activity($id){
        // Insert questions

        $field_question = array(
            'question'=>$this->input->post('question'),
            'group_id' => $id
        );

        $this->db->insert('questions', $field_question);
}

Form submission

<form method="post" action="<?php echo base_url(); ?>posts/create_activity">


    <div class="form-group">
        <label for="exampleFormControlTextarea1"><h5> Question: </h5></label>
             <textarea class="form-control" name="question" id="question" rows="8" placeholder="Enter your Question"></textarea>
    </div>

        <hr>


    <input type="submit" id="btnSave" class="btn btn-block btn-info" value="Submit" />

 </form>

Pass the Id into model function 

$this->post_model->create_activity($id);

You have to pass $id from your view_activity controller method to your view or you can directly get it from uri in your view. After that change yourform action to

<form method="post" action="<?php echo base_url('posts/create_activity/'.$id); ?>">.

Alternatively if you do not want it in your uri you can add one hidden input with the value of $id.
