The experiment has been performed on the same flock as mentioned in Part I. The extra cellular fluid amount was determined by the rhadonate method. The volume of intracellular fluid was calculated as a difference between the total water amount and the extracellular fluid volume. The absolute content of extracellular fluid in calves' constitutions between 5th and 31st day of animal lives fluctuated statistically only slightly. The observed stability of ECF volume in litres seems to be caused mainly by the changes in interstitial fluid content. The extracellular fluid volume calculated both per one kilogram of a calf body and per square metre of its body area became significantly reduced within the experimental period which fact found its statistical confirmation. The results appeared negatively and veritably correlated with animal ages. Expressed in litres as well as calculated per units of weight and body area of a calf the volume of intracellular fluid showed a statistically confirmed and significant increase for a period from calf's 5th to 31st day of life. The observed ICF volume increase appeared veritably correlated with ages, weights and body areas of the examined animals.

D007424	Intracellular Fluid	The fluid inside CELLS.	Fluid, Intracellular,Fluids, Intracellular,Intracellular Fluids
D008297	Male		Males
D012044	Regression Analysis	Procedures for finding the mathematical function which best describes the relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent variables. In linear regression (see LINEAR MODELS) the relationship is constrained to be a straight line and LEAST-SQUARES ANALYSIS is used to determine the best fit. In logistic regression (see LOGISTIC MODELS) the dependent variable is qualitative rather than continuously variable and LIKELIHOOD FUNCTIONS are used to find the best relationship. In multiple regression, the dependent variable is considered to depend on more than a single independent variable.

D000367	Age Factors	Age as a constituent element or influence contributing to the production of a result. It may be applicable to the cause or the effect of a circumstance. It is used with human or animal concepts but should be differentiated from AGING, a physiological process, and TIME FACTORS which refers only to the passage of time.

D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
