When a solution has the same concentration of water molecules and solutes as a red blood cell it is considered an solution?
When a solution has the same concentration of water molecules and solutes as a red blood cell, it is considered an isotonic solution. In an isotonic solution, there is no net movement of water into or out of the red blood cell, maintaining its normal shape and function.
Effects of tonicity on hemolysis of red blood cells?
A hypertonic solution will cause the cell to shrink as water leaves the intracellular fluid due to osmosis. A hypotonic solution will lead to water crossing into the cell membrane, causing it to swell, leading to hemolysis.
What are the effects of isotonic solution on human blood cells?
An isotonic solution is defined as having the same 'osmotic pressure', or concentration, of some material, especially salts and minerals. They often help to rehydrate the body from the effects of excess sweating.
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.
What is an istonic solution for red blood cells?
Nothing will happen to a red blood cell in an isotonic solution. An isotonic solution means that the amount of solvent in the solution is the same inside the cell as it is outside the cell. Osmosis occurs, but the water going into the cell equals the water leaving the cell. A red blood cell in a hypotonic solution will burst because more water will go into the cell than the water leaving it. A red blood cell in a hypertonic solution will shrivel up because more water will leave the cell than go into it.
Solution does not cause the net movement of water into or out of a red blood cell?
An isotonic solution (in other words any solution that is isosmotic with the cytoplasm)

Bursting of a red blood cells in hypotonic solution?
That is not a question.Blood cells burst in hypotonic solutions because there is no equilibrium. therefore, since the solution outside of the blood cell is at a higher concentration, the solution will flow into the blood cell ( high to low concentration) and cause the cell to expand. The blood cell will burst if too much solution enters the cell.
What is meant by a saline solution that is isotonic with blood plasma?
A saline solution that is isotonic with blood plasma has the same concentration of solutes as blood plasma, ensuring that there is no net movement of water across cell membranes. This balance helps to prevent cell shrinkage or swelling, making the solution ideal for medical applications such as intravenous drips.
Is the movement of water in a hypertonic solution from a high concentration to a low concentration?
Yes, the movement of water in a hypertonic solution is from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.
What is so important about the osmotic effect of a solution?
The osmotic effect of a solution is its ability to change the flow of water from itself to another solution that it can access. For instance, if you are injecting a high-osmotic solution directly into the blood stream, you can cause the patient to become dehydrated because the solution will pull the water from the patient's body tissues into the blood stream until it is equalized between the body tissues' osmotic force and the solution's osmotic force. In contrast, if you inject a solution that is too dilute, you can cause cells to rupture as the water from the dilute solution filters into the cells to try to equalize the osmotic forces between the cell's interiors and the solution.
What are the examples neutral solution?
Water and blood
How does water move in an isotonic solution?
In an isotonic solution, water molecules move across the cell membrane in both directions at equal rates. This means that there is no net movement of water into or out of the cell, resulting in a stable cell volume.
