Caption: Figure 7.

The disk PDFs (in black) of our sample of 19 galaxies at 7.7, 10, 11.3, and 21 μm decomposed by contributions from H II regions (blue) and outside (red). These are the same PDFs as in Figure 6, but in log-stretch to highlight the power-law component. The best-fit power law is shown in dark blue. The corresponding best-fit H II region power-law index m and log–log intercept c for each PDF are included for each panel.
