The human body is consisted of 60 % of water in adult males. In adult females, it is 55 % of water. The body is broken down into the following compartments: * Intracellular fluid makes up ( 2/3) of body water. * Extracellular fluid makes up ( 1/3) of body water. To Be Summarized: * Total Body Water = 60% of Body Weight * Intracellular fluid = 40% of Body Weight * Extracellular fluid = 20% of Body Weight Question Answered By: Ali Sabah Al-Takmachi, UOS, College: Medicine

Do a normal person should have positive fluid balance or negative fluid balance?
Total body water is 60% of body weight, Intracellular fluid is 40% of the body weight and extracellular fluid is 20% of the body weight.
What is The concetration of glucose in intracellular fluid?
The concentration of glucose in intracellular fluid is very low. Glucose is typically converted to glycogen within the body's cells.
Extracellular fluid is found everywhere in the body EXCEPT?
Extracellular is outside cells and intracellular is inside, so that extracellular fluid would not be inside cells.
Water within cells is called?
There's no name for such a fluid, because the body can't 'produce' water. No water that didn't go into the body earlier can come out of it.
Which cellular compartment contains the greatest amount of body fluid?
There is no compartment in the body that stores water. All the cells and the space in between them is where the water is that makes up 75% of body weight
A compartment within the body?
intracellular fluid compartment and extracellular fluid compartment
Do a normal person should have positive fluid balance or negative fluid balance?
Total body water is 60% of body weight, Intracellular fluid is 40% of the body weight and extracellular fluid is 20% of the body weight.
What is The concetration of glucose in intracellular fluid?
The concentration of glucose in intracellular fluid is very low. Glucose is typically converted to glycogen within the body's cells.
Is blood plasma extracellular or intracellular?
It is the intravascular fluid part of extracellular fluid (all body fluid outside of cells)
Water compartment containing 65 percent of water in the body?
intracellular fluid
How much percentage of water found in body fluids outside the cells?
Outside the cells, water serves as a means of transport to and from the cells and as a solvent for the somatic colloids. Distribution of body fluid and fluid percentage of body weight for men, women, and children men women children Total body fluid 60 % 50 % 75 % Intracellular space (ICS) 40 % 30 % 48 % Extracellular space (ECS) 20 % 20 % 27 % Interstitial part 15 % 16 % 22 % intravascular part 5 % 4 % 5 %
Extracellular fluid is found everywhere in the body EXCEPT?
Extracellular is outside cells and intracellular is inside, so that extracellular fluid would not be inside cells.
Why and how does the ECF differ from the ICF?
The acronym ECF stands for extracellular fluid. Extracellular fluid is the fluid outside of the cell in the human body.
Where is the extracellular fluid found in the body?
Extracellular is outside cells and intracellular is inside, so that extracellular fluid would not be inside cells.
Where does extracellular fluid content come from?
Extracellular fluid is composed of the lquids in the body that are not inside the cells, that is called intracellular fluid. The fluids outside are either plasma, cerebrospinal fluid, lymphatic fluid, or interstitial fluid.
Water within cells is called?
There's no name for such a fluid, because the body can't 'produce' water. No water that didn't go into the body earlier can come out of it.
The total body water is divided into intracellular and extracellular fluids Plasma is considered?
extracellular
