This would be in the small intestine, because most absorption takes place there.

What affects the concentration of sodium in the blood?
The concentration of sodium in the blood plasma depends on two things: the total amount of sodium and water in arteries, veins, and capillaries
Is the highest concentrations of HIV is saliva?
No; highest concentration of HIV is in blood.
Is Blood pressure highest in the aorta and lowest in the capillaries?
superior vena cava
Why does oxygen diffuse in and carbon dioxide diffuse out?
In the alveoli, oxygen diffuses into the blood that the capillaries carry due to a concentration gradient that exists there as oxygen conc is higher in the alveolar sacs than in the blood capillaries. Similarly carbon dioxide diffuses out of the blood capillaries into the alveolar sacs down the concentration gradient. The constant flow of blood is there to ensure this concentration gradient is established at all times.
Which leukocyte has the highest concentration of normal blood?
sleen
What does the hemoglobin in red blood cells release as blood travels through the capillaries?
As red blood cells travel through capillaries oxygen is released (disassociated) with hemoglobin. The oxygen then diffuses down it's concentration gradient into the tissues.
Where is the blood with the highest oxygen concentration?
pulmonary vein or lungs
What has the highest blood oxygen concentration?
the androgerodamus vein has the most
The highest oxygen concentration is found in the blood of the?
pulmonary veins
Water passes from the tissue fluids into the blood capillaries mainly because?
lymph blood has a higher protein concentration than the tissue fluids
How does oxygen move from the capillaries to cells?
Through diffusion. There is less oxygen in the cells as opposed to the capillaries, so through simple diffusion, the oxygen goes from an area of high concentration to lower concentration.
Does the exchange of carbon dioxide depend on the concentration of oxygen in the alveoli and the blood?
No. It depends on the concentration of carbon dioxide in the alveoli and the blood. The concentration of carbon dioxide in the capillaries of the alveoli is higher than the concentration of carbon dioxide in the air, so carbon dioxide in the capillaries of the alveoli diffuses out of the capillaries into the alveoli of the lungs and is exhaled.
