Where is most of the water in the body located? Intracellular fluid Lumens of the digestive and urinary tracts Interstitial fluid Plasma

Intracellular fluid

When you eat a large meal and your body absorbs a lot of glucose and that makes its way to the interstitial fluid before going into the cell. 100% of the glucose should be absorbed into the cell from the interstitial fluid. Why does nearly all of the glucose enter the cell, rather than only half of it? It is modified by the cell, so there is still more glucose on the outside of the cell than inside it. The cells make ATP so fast, they use up all the glucose as soon as it enters the cell. Insulin forces glucose into the cell against a concentration gradient. It is moved by active transport.
