Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The two major fluid compartments of the animal body are the extracellular space (which includes the interstitial fluid, blood plasma, and lymph) and the intracellular space (which is the fluid inside cells). Therefore, option C is the correct answer. Option A is incorrect because it only lists two types of fluid spaces, and it does not include extracellular fluid. Option B is incorrect because it lists interstitial space twice and does not include blood plasma or lymph. Option D is incorrect because there is no such thing as intercellular space - cells are surrounded by interstitial fluid in the extracellular space.
