Creatinine is a waste product of creatine, a compound used to
supply energy to muscles in the human body. Creatinine is cleared
from the body entirely through the kidneys and the urinary tract.
We can model the production of creatinine in the muscle as an
input to a two-compartment model, one piece containing muscle
mass and the other containing blood plasma. A diagram of the
system is provided at right.
Each compartment (m for muscle, p for plasma) has a fixed and
constant volume, and at any point contains a number of moles of
creatinine n. After a workout, the muscles produce a creatinine at a
constant rate n, which has units [mol/time].

The transfer of creatinine between compartments is governed by a first-order rate law based on transfer coefficients
k. The mass balances on each compartment, treated as well-mixed control volumes, are:

2.1. Assuming the initial conditions for all states and inputs are zero and that the concentration of creatinine in
a given control volume i can be calculated as c¿(t) = ni(t), derive the following first-order transfer functions

units, assume that the transfer function relating the muscle concentration Cm(s) to an input Nin(s) is:

Using the table of Laplace Transforms and/or partial fraction expansion, determine the time-domain
