Question

Using the Kroghtissue cylinder model learned in class, we intend to calculate the glucose concentration around the blood vessels in the muscle tissue. (For calculation, it is assumed that the vessel has the following conditions in images.)

Calculate C(rT, z) when r=rT and draw a graph with the value of z as the x-axis.
