Summary Introduction
Introduction:
In the multicellular organism, there are two types of fluids generally found such as intracellular and extracellular fluids. Intracellular fluids are found inside the body cells of the body, extracellular are the fluids, which are found in outside the body cells and hence it refers to the internal environment of the multicellular organisms.
