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.

∙ 12y agoHemolysis is when a red blood cell is placed in a hypertonic solution and the cell burst because water is coming in.
Crenation is when a red blood cell is placed in a hypotonic solution and the cell shrinks because water is coming out.

Does 2 percent NaCl cause crenation or hemolysis in red blood cells?
crenation
What effect does hemolysis have on sodium values?
sodium values will be decreased by haemolysis
What is the full form of h2o?
h2o
What happen to blood cell in 10 percent NaCL?
A 10% NaCl solution is hypertonic to a blood cell and would cause the cell to shrink, aka crenation.
H2o is the formula for what compound?
The formula is H2O. The name of this compound is water.
What is 1 percent of glucose crenation or hemolysis?
Hemolysis
Does 2 percent NaCl cause crenation or hemolysis in red blood cells?
crenation
What is 5 percent of glucose crenation or hemolysis?
None
Will a 2 percent solution of sodium chloride cause crenation or hemolysis of a red blood cell?
Crenation of course.
Is crenation to plasmolysis and hemolysis is to turgor pressure true or false?
false
Would red blood cells exhibit hemolysis or crenation in a 5.0 percent solution of glucose?
neither!
Is 2.8 of NaCl hemolysis or crenation?
This should be compared to something before determination can be done. For ex. if relative to blood, 2.8 % of Nacl will cause crenation since it's more hepertonic than blood. Liquid/solute in the blood will then difuse to go out (fr its low concentration) of the RBC cell to a higher concentration wich is Nacl.
What solution does crenation occur in?
Crenation is the loss of water from an animal cell due to osmosis. Lysis is the rupture of the cell wall due to too much water moving into an animal cell due to osmosis. Both crenation and lysis have drastic effects on the animal cell. Crenation is the equivalent of flaccid plant cells and lysis is the equivalent of turgid for plant cells. The key difference between lysis and turgid is that plants have a cellulose cell wall so do not rupture or burst the cell wall like animal cells with lysis do.
What type of hemolysis is produced by s pneumoniae?
The hemolysis is called green hemolysis because of the color change in the agar.
What is the shrinking of plant cells?
crenation
Does crenation kill bacteria?
yes
What is an example of Crenation?
Crenation is an example of osmosis. In this process, the cell distorts and shrinks after being placed in a hypotonic solution.
