Summary Introduction

To identify: The solution that initially had a higher concentration of solute when solutions A and B are separated by a selectively permeable barrier and the solution on side A increases over time.

Introduction: The passive movement of molecules from the area of higher concentration to the area of lower concentration is referred to as diffusion. Diffusion takes place in order to reach the state of equilibrium.

Explanation of Solution

Initially, solution A must have more solutes when compared to that of solution B. As a result, water gets moved from side B to side A across the selectively permeable membrane through osmosis. Thus, the fluid level on side A gets increased. The diffusion of water molecules across a selectively permeable membrane is known as osmosis. In this state, the movement of water molecules occurs toward the higher concentration of the solute as it is where the water concentration is found to be lower. This occurs until the complete elimination of the concentration gradient.

Preoperative Diagnosis: Torn medial meniscus, left knee Postoperative Diagnosis: Combination horizontal cleavage tear/flap tear, posterior horn, medial meniscus, left knee. Operation: Arthroscopic subtotal medial meniscectomy, left knee Anesthetic: General endotracheal Description of Procedure: The patient was placed on the operating table in the supine position and general endotracheal anesthesia was administered. After an adequate level of anesthesia was achieved, the patient's left lower extremity was prepped with Betadine scrubbing solution, then draped in a sterile manner. Several sites were then infiltrated with 1% Xylocaine solution with Epinephrine to help control bleeding from stab wounds to be made at these sites. These stab wounds were made anterolaterally at the level of the superior pole of the patella for insertion of an irrigation catheter into the suprapatellar pouch area, anterolaterally at the level of the joint line for insertion of the scope and anteromedially at…
