Overview
The graphic displays two black-and-white anatomical diagrams side by side. The left diagram represents an adult human figure, and the right diagram represents an infant figure. Both diagrams show percentage values assigned to specific body regions, which are commonly used in medical contexts such as burn assessment.
Values
Adult Figure (Left):
- Head: 4.5%
- Each arm: 4.5%
- Torso: 18%
- Genital area: 1%
- Each leg: 9%
Infant Figure (Right):
- Head: 9%
- Each arm: 4.5%
- Torso: 18%
- Each leg: 7%
Presentation
Both diagrams are simple black outlines on a white background. The figures are shown in a frontal view with arms extended slightly outward. Percentage values are printed directly on the corresponding body regions in bold black text. There are no colors, shading or additional decorative elements.
