Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The effect on red blood cell when it is placed in 3 % (w/v) glucose solution should be determined.
Concept introduction:
Isotonic Solution:
When two or more substances are mixed together to form a solute and a solvent then the resultant homogenous mixture is called a solution and thus, when solutions have the same osmotic pressure, then they are called isotonic solution.
Hypotonic Solution:
When the osmotic pressure is lower than the body fluids, then the resultant solution is known as hypotonic solution.
Hypertonic Solution:
When the osmotic pressure is higher than the body fluids then the resultant solution is known as hypotonic solution.
(b)
Interpretation:
The effect on red blood cells when it is placed in 0.15 M KCl solution should be determined.

C) The sodium chloride solution is hypotonic, and the red blood cell will undergo hemolysis. D) The sodium chloride solution is hypertonic, and the red blood cell will undergo hemolysis.arrow_forwardBlood urea nitrogen (BUN) is a normal blood test that indicate how well the kidneys and liver are working. The BUN test measures the amount of urea present in the blood. The concentration of BUN level of the blood should not be greater than 20.0mg/dL in blood. If the major contributor for BUN is urea (CH4N2O). What would be the osmotic pressure of 20.0mg/dL of urea dissolved in water at 37oC?arrow_forward
