What is hyper tonic and what is hypo tonic?
i think the question that you are asking is what is the difference between hyper and hypo tonic. A fluid that has a greater concentration of solutes in comparison to another solution is a hypertonic solution. A hypotonic solution is a fluid that has a lower concentraton of solutes in comparison to another solution.
Are the terms ''hypertonic'' and ''hyperosmotic'' same?
No. Hypertonic can be seen as hypo-osmotic and same for hypotonic and hyper-osmotic
How are hypertonic solution and hypo tonic Solution related?
A hypertonic solution has the solute greater than the solvent, whereas a hypotonic solution is the reverse.
What is hypertonic fluid overload?
Hypertonic fluid overload is a medical condition in which there is too much fluid in a person's blood. This is caused by an increase of sodium content.
Is sodium chloride hypotonic?
A sodium chloride solution can be hypo-, hyper- or isotonic depending on the concentration.
Which solution has more solute-hypo or hypertonic?
A hypertonic solution has more solute compared to a hypotonic solution. In a hypertonic solution, the concentration of solutes is higher, causing water to move out of the cells. In a hypotonic solution, the concentration of solutes is lower, which leads to water moving into the cells.
Should hypotonic or hypertonic solution be given for hypervolemia?
Hypertonic solution should be given for hypervolemia because it helps to draw excess fluid out of the tissues and into the bloodstream, where it can be excreted by the kidneys. This helps to reduce swelling and fluid overload in the body.
If a cell has fluid flowing out of it then in what kind of solution is this cell immersed?
hypertonic
Why would someone need a hypertonic?
A hypertonic is needed when a patient is experiencing brain swelling. This in turn increases the intravascular osmolality and pulls fluid out of the tissues.
Why does vinegar cause a hard-boiled egg to expand?
Diffusion between hypo/hypertonic substances across a semipermeable membrane. AKA: The water from the vinegar fills the egg
is water hypotonic?
yes it is hypotonic to normal water. for more info, see is distilled water hypotonic or hypertonic.
Is albumin hypertonic?
Yes, albumin is hypertonic because it has a higher osmotic pressure compared to normal body fluids. This property allows albumin to help retain fluid within the blood vessels through osmosis.
