Summary Introduction
Introduction:
The body’s water content is regulated so that the total volume of water in the body remains constant. The three routes for the loss of water from the body are; the large amount (approx. 61%) of water is lost in the form of urine, about 35% of the water is lost through evaporation or by perspiration and a small amount of water is lost through feces.
