Answer»

The CORRECT answer is (B) The peripheral compartment in a two compartment model

The BEST explanation: In the GRAPH, the marked curve is showing the drug concentration of the peripheral compartment of a two compartment model. The drug concentration in the peripheral compartment first increases and reaches the MAXIMUM. Then due to loss of drug starts due to elimination. This is the post distributive or elimination phase.
