Normal saline solution (0.9% NaCl) is considered isotonic with blood (although it actually has a slightly higher degree of osmolality). Ringers lactate is also considered isotonic.
5% Dextrose solution is also considered hypotonic compared with blood, because although it is isotonic while infusing, the dextrose is metabolized and free water is left, which is hypotonic.
although in isotonic environment cell remains normal yet such type of env... does not exist in nature. in nature only hypotonic and hypertonic exist. Organisms have to live live only in these 2 types of environment for which they develop adaptations in their bodies.
Isotonic solutions are ones that contain a solvent, such as water, and a solute, such as table salt. The ions of salt have an ionic bond, sodium plus chloride. A saline solution is therefore considered isotonic.
A simplified definition of an isotonic solution is one that is the same "saltiness" a reference, usually the human body. So, for example, 0.9% salt in water is isotonic to human tears.
isotonic solution
Sodium chloride
Isotonic solution.Common table salt when added to water is an example of a solute. For example, salt crystals (the solute) are the part of salt water (a solution) which has changed its state when added to water (the solvent).
isotonic
An isotonic solution for human red blood cells is .85% sodium chloride. When the osmotic pressure is the same outside the cells and inside the cells, the solution is isotonic.
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
Isotonic does not change the shape of a cell membrane
Normal Saline Solution, or anything that contains 0.9% NaCl
Isotonic solution.Common table salt when added to water is an example of a solute. For example, salt crystals (the solute) are the part of salt water (a solution) which has changed its state when added to water (the solvent).
what is an isotonic solution
Isotonic
It basically means that it is equal or the same
isotonic
It depends on the solution.
It is not true that an object will swell in an isotonic solution because there is no different concentration gradient between the object and the isotonic solution
isotonic solution, equilibrium
A water solution that has the same salt concentration as the cells is said to be is isotonic.
Isotonic solution is very close to sea water in composition and also concentration. Glucose isotonic solution is an electrolyte solution used for re-hydration. It contains salt, water and glucose.
It depends on the solution.
