Why is saline drip better than water for blood?

Water will just diffuse inside the blood cells because there is a higher concentration of blood outside the cell now. This will cause hemolysis. Basically, the blood cells will burst open. However, saline will not diffuse through the blood cells.


If bacteria living in salty seawater were displaced to a freshwater environment the cell structure that would prevent the cells from rupturing is?

Anti-saline Cell Wall


What are effects of toxicity on hemolysis of red blood cells?

Hemolysis is the breakdown of red blood cells.


Is H2O hemolysis or crenation?

Crenation is the contraction of a cell after exposure to a hypertonic solution, due to the loss of water through osmosis.Hemolysis is the breakdown of red blood cells.

So that the RBCs won't rupture.. :)


Will growth in a plant be normal with pH7?

pH 7 is neither acidic nor saline. A plant cell has 6pH, therefore, it is slightly acedic. The plant growth will be normal in pH 7.


Someone help please -Why is is unsafe to give water intravenously?

An isotonic solution such as saline must be administered intravenously to maintain a proper concentration gradient. Water is hypotonic in relation to red blood cells and will cause the water to flow into the cell bringing about hemolysis. - S. Alam


Would hypertonic or hypotonic blood serum cause hemolysis?

If a cell is placed into a hypotonic solution, the water will flow into the cell causing it to swell and possibly lyse. If a cell is placed into a hypertonic solution, the water will flow out of the cell causing it to crenate. So hemolysis occurs when the red blood cells lyse.


How does hemolysis affect hematocrit?

Clinically significant hemolysis is rare problem but it can affect red blood cell count and density of plasma. Studies have been done about the effect of hemolysis on hematocrit and the results stated that the changes appear too small to be accurately detected.
