Title: Exploring Red Blood Cell Behavior in Different NaCl Solutions --- For each wet mount, describe the appearance of the red blood cells, determine the solution's tonicity, and indicate the net water movement relative to the cell (into the cell, no net movement, out of the cell). | Tube (NaCl) | Appearance of RBCs | Tonicity of Solution | Net Water Movement | |-------------|---------------------|----------------------|--------------------| | 10 g/dl | | | | | 3.5 g/dl | | | | | 0.85 g/dl | | | | | 0.45 g/dl | | | | | 0.20 g/dl | | | | --- **Instructions:** - **Appearance of RBCs:** Observe and describe how red blood cells appear in each solution. Consider changes like swelling, shrinking, or maintaining their shape. - **Tonicity of Solution:** Classify the solution as hypertonic, isotonic, or hypotonic based on the behavior of the red blood cells. - **Net Water Movement:** Determine whether water is moving into the cell, out of the cell, or if there is no net movement. This exercise illustrates the principles of osmosis and the effects of different saline concentrations on cell volume and functionality.

Expert Solution
Introduction

The Tonicity of the solution is defined as the capability of the solution to alter its volume by intake or release of water. Depending on tonicity the solutions are classified into 3 types hypertonic, hypotonic, and isotonic.
