What would happen if a dialysis patients blood was exposed to plain water instead of dialysis solution?
you will probably die but im not sure
What would happen to the weight of a dialysis bag filled with molasses placed in a beaker of water?
The water in the dialysis bag would diffuse out into the molasses solution. This is because there is a high concentration of water inside the dialysis bag and a a lower concentration of water in the molasses solution. By diffusion or osmosis, the water would tend to move from the concentrated bag to a less concentrated solution.
Would if you spinal fluid impinged?
What would happen if your spinal fluid was impinged
What would happen if an object is immersed in a fluid and the object and the fluid had the same density?
The object would behave as a part of fluid and it will remain where it is kept.
Why does the fluid in dialysis have to flow in opposite directions?
It has to flow in opposite directions to keep a balanced concentration therefore a balanced diffusion. If it went in the same direction as the blood there would be less diffusion as, for instance, by the time the dialysis fluid from the right side got the the left, no more diffusion could take place with the blood above it as the fluid would already have gone though diffusion with blood further back down the right end so particles would not move from a high concentration to a low concentration as the fluid below would have a high concentration too from what it gained back at the right end.
What would happen in your body in a hypoosmotic state?
In a hypoosmotic state, such as one that occurs with water intoxication, edema is most likely to result as intracellular fluid increases.
What would happen if someone drunk brake fluid?
They would die of kidney failure.
Examples of a fluid?
A Fluid Is A Substance Which Can Flow, So Some Examples Of A Fluid Would Be; Coffee Tap Water, A Water Fall and Steam.
What would happen to the embryo if it didn't have amniotic fluid around it?
The embryo/fetus would die.
What would happen if there was no hydrogen and oxygen in water?
Then the water would not exist.
How can you tell if osmosis occurred in dialysis tubing?
Osmosis is usually detected by simply looking at the experiment - most of the time, enough water is transferred to cause a noticeable rise/fall in water levels. However, I assume you could tell through the usage of weighing scales - as water re-distributes, as would the weight.
What would happen to your cells if the fluid outside our cells became hypertonic?
water would move from the red blood cell into the solution and the cell would then shrink and therefore not function properly
