Intravenous solutions must be prepared, to that they are isotonic to red blood cells. A 0.9% salt solution is isotonic to red blood cells. Keeping this in mind, explain what would happen to a red blood cell placed into a solution of 99.3% water and 0.7% salt. Note to obtain full marks you must care both the intercellular environment to the extracellular environment (solute vs solvent).
