1) Red blood cells placed in placed in distilled water cannot reach equilibrium so they will lyse due to osmosis.

What happens to a humans red blood cells if they drink saltwater?

Red blood cells will swell when placed into a solution of pure water. This is due to the osmolarity. Normal blood osmolarity is around 310 milliosmoles. The osmolarity difference when putting the red blood cell from blood into water will cause swelling of the cell. Osmotic pressure will be driving water from the environment into the cell in an effort to create equal osmotic pressures in the two environments, the cytoplasm of the red blood cell and the water solution. Ultimately, the too much water will flow into the red blood cells and they will inevitably lyse.


How do increase blood flow in your body?

The blood is created in the bone marrow, or rather the red blood cells are created by hematopoetic stem cells. however, there are MANY different kinds of cells in your blood, and getting them "matured" happens in many different places throughout your body, including the spleen, lymph system, Blood cells are produced in the bone marrow, a jellylike substance inside the bones that is composed of, among other things, fat, blood, and special cells that turn into the various kinds of blood cells. In children, the marrow of most of the bones produces blood. But in adults, only the marrow of certain bones -- the spine, ribs, pelvis, and some others -- continues to make blood. Bone marrow that actively produces blood cells is called red marrow, and bone marrow that no longer produces blood cells is called yellow marrow.All blood cells come from the same kind of stem cell, which has the potential to turn into any kind of blood cell. These stem cells are called pluripotential hematopoietic stem cells.As the blood cells develop from the stem cells in the marrow, they seep into the blood that passes through the bones and on into the bloodstream. The different kinds of blood cells have different "life spans" -- red blood cells last about 120 days in the bloodstream; platelets about 10 days; and the various kinds of white blood cells can last anywhere from days to years.The body has a feedback system that tells it when to make new red blood cells. If bodily oxygen levels are low (as they would be if there are too few red blood cells circulating), the kidneys produce a hormone called erythropoietin, which stimulates the stem cells in the marrow to produce more red blood cells.
