Chapter 5, Problem 18RQ

Draw a large rectangle to represent the total body volume. Using the information in Figure 5.1b, divide the box proportionately into compartments to represent the different body compartments. Use the information in Figure 5.1d and add solutes to the compartments. Use large letters for solutes with higher concentrations and small letters for solutes with low concentrations. Label the cell membranes and the endothelial membrane.
