5 percent glucose solution is isotonic for red blood cell if red blood cell are kept in 2 percent glucose solution what will happen to the cells. what such a solution called?

2% glucose solution is considered as a hypotonic solution for that the solution will enter the semi-permeable membrane of the red blood cells causing the cells to explode or burst. Why? It's because RBCs have a higher concentration inside it than that of the 2% glucose solution so the solution will enter the cells.

In isotonic solution cells reach a point called dynamic?
In isotonic solution cells reach a point called dynamic equilibrium.
What is the solution called when the cell is in equilibrium called?
A cell that is in an isotonic solution is in equilibrium with the solution. What ions and water outside of the cell is the same as the ions and water that is inside the cell. The term -iso means the same.
Which microscope field contains isotonic bathing solution?
I have the same packet. The answer is C. It took me forever to realize that the pictures were the answers. (: you are so wrong. and its not nice of you to purposely mislead someone looking for help. hypertonic means that the cells will be crenated or shrunk. so the answer is obiviously A
Normal saline is 0.9 percent what would happen to the red blood cells of a patient who was teated with 0 percent saline what about 10 percent saline?
Normal Saline 0.9% is called an isotonic solution. A 0.0% saline solution is called a hypotonic solution. A solution of this concentration would cause water to diffuse into the red blood cells and cause them to burst open. A 10% saline solution is called a hypertonic solution. A solution of this concentration would cause water to diffuse out of the red blood cells, making them shrivel up and shrink.
A cell that has neither a net gain nor a net lose of water when it is immersed in a solution is?
A cell that neither gains nor loses water when it is immersed in a solution is called isotonic to its environment. Cells with a higher concentration of ions than the surrounding medium tend to expand.
In isotonic solution cells reach a point called dynamic?
In isotonic solution cells reach a point called dynamic equilibrium.
Why would a solution be called isotonic?
A solution with the same ratio of solute to solvent (concentration) as another solution is called isotonic. If it has more solvent and thus a lower solute concentration, then it is called hypertonic.
What is the solution called when the cell is in equilibrium called?
A cell that is in an isotonic solution is in equilibrium with the solution. What ions and water outside of the cell is the same as the ions and water that is inside the cell. The term -iso means the same.
What are the types of intravenous solutions?
The most common is a saline solution very similar in composition to tears, is what is called Physiologic solution. There are Ringer and Glucose which have divers concentrations of metabolites or glucose and some less used and known.
Which type of solution will have the same solute concentration on both sides of the cell membrane?
when net solute concentrations are equal on both sides of a semi permeable membrane its called isotonic

What is a water solution that has the same salt concintration as the cell called?
Isotonic.
A solution that contains the same level of NaCl as that found in red blood cells is called?
isotonic solution

When a solution has the same concentration of water molecules and solutes as a red blood cell it is considered an solution?
It is called an isotonic solution. If the salt concentration is higher, it is called hypertonic and if lower it is called hypotonic.
What is a solution called when it has a lesser concentration of particles?
A solution with the same solute concentration as another (e.g. human body fluids) is called isotonic.
