Anatomy of the Total body water

It’s important to remember that there are 2 sites where water is located;

#1. Inside the cells #2. Outside the cells
INTRA = INSIDE EXTRA = OUTSIDE
INTRACELLULAR = ICF EXTRACELLULAR = ECF


We get these fluids by drinking WATER or any type of fluids which is then delivered by our GI tract and
then absorbed by the capillary walls of the small intestine, excess fluids will proceed in the large intestine
and then secreted as a urea from the kidneys which will then release in the external environment.
