Answer:

Body water is the water in an animal's body that is contained in tissues, blood, bones, etc. Summing the percentages of body water contained in the various fluid compartments gives a total body water content

Explanation:

  • Body fluids in most animals are contained in a variety of body fluids.
  • These include intracellular fluid. extracellular fluid; plasma; interstitial fluid; and transcellular fluid.
  • Water is also found in organs, gastrointestinal fluid, cerebrospinal fluid, peritoneal fluid, and ocular fluid.
  • Adipose tissue contains about 10%  water, while muscle tissue contains about 75% water.

Water in the body  is broken down into the following compartments:

  • Intracellular fluid (2/3 of the body's water) is the fluid contained within the cells. In a 72 kg body containing 40 liters of fluid, about 25 liters are intracellular, which is  62.5%.
  • Extracellular fluid (1/3 of body water) is the fluid outside the cells. About 15 liters of the 40-liter body is extracellular,  37.5%
