Fluid compartments
Water makes up approximately 60% of lean body weight and is distributed both within and
How is water compartmentalized within men and women? Label the diagram below.

, Fluid movement
Does either compartment have relatively more water
available within it? If so, which one?
No, both compartments have the same water
available.
Yes, compartment A has more water available.
Yes, compartment B has more water available.
For net movement of water to occur in the system illustrated above, what must the membr
compartments be permeable to?
Solute and water
Solute only
Water only
Based on your two previous answers, which compartment would gain net water?
Compartment A
Compartment B
Where possible, place the statement in the correct category.
Decreases water activity
Has no e ect on water activity
