What causes these differences in appearance? In the distilled water solution, the red blood cells appeared swollen. When cells swell, it means the concentration of solutes in the extracellular fluid is lower than the concentration of solutes inside the red blood cells, making the solution hypotonic. Meanwhile, when the red blood cells are diluted in the 0.9% sodium chloride solution, they all appear to look the same and equal. When this occurs, it means that there was no net movement of water between the intracellular and extracellular fluids. This, in turn, is an example of osmosis in an isotonic environment; therefore, it's safe to say that the 0.9% sodium chloride solution is isotonic. Lastly, the red blood cells in the 12.5% salt solution have a shrunken and wrinkled appearance. When the concentration of solutes in the extracellular fluid is higher than the concentration of solutes inside the red blood cells, it results in a net movement of water molecules out of the cells, causing the cells to shrink and collapse. This is an example of osmosis in a hypertonic environment, making the 12.5% salt solution a hypertonic solution. 182 /10000 Word Limit Is the movement of water in and out of these blood cells active or passive? The movement of water in and out of the red blood cells is a passive. When molecules move from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration, they require no energy expenditure, resulting in passive movement. 37 /10000 Word LimitWhy do intravenous (IV) solutions need to have the same tonicity as blood? Intravenous (IV) solutions need to have the same tonicity as blood to allow for even exchange of water across the cell membrane, which keeps the cells whole/intact and functional. If the IV solution is less concentrated, then water will move into the cell, causing it to swell and burst. If the |V solution is more concentrated, then the water will move out of the cell, which will cause it to become dehydrated and shrink. 74 /10000 Word Limit Observation 1: Distilled Water Slide In this observation, the blood cells in distilled water appear to be swollen. Distilled water is a hypotonic solution, which means the concentration of solutes in the extracellular fluid is lower than the concentration of solutes inside the red blood cells. In turn, this causes a net movement of water molecules into the cells, which leads to swelling and causes them to eventually burst. 64 / 10000 Word Limit Observation 2: 0.9% Salt Solution 0.9% Sodium Chloride is an isotonic solution. In this observation, the red blood cells appear to look the same. During this osmosis, the concentration of solutes in the extracellular solution is equal to the concentration of solutes inside the red blood cells. Therefore, there is no net movement of water between the intracellular and extracellular fluids. 56 /10000 Word Limit Observation 3: 12.5% Salt In this observation, the red blood cells seem to have shrunken or burst. Due to their appearance, we can say that this is an example of osmosis in a hypertonic environment. This is the result of the concentration of solutes in the extracellular fluid being greater than the concentration of solutes inside the red blood cells. This, in turn, causes a net movement of water molecules out of the cells, resulting in the cells shrinking and collapsing. 77 /10000 Word LimitCompetency Review Which of the following does not impact membrane permeability? I * ATP Availability Molecule Charge Solute Concentration Molecule Size What would happen to a cell placed in a hypertonic solution? There would be no change to the cell. Water would fill the cell, causing it to swell. * Water would leave the cell, causing it to shrink. Active transport moves molecules from areas of high concentration to low concentration using ATP. True + False What is the difference between diffusion and osmosis? Osmosis states that molecules move from high to low concentration, whereas diffusion states that molecules move from low to high concentration. * Osmosis refers to water molecules, whereas diffusion refers to any molecule. Diffusion refers only to water molecules, whereas osmosis refers to any molecule. Diffusion does not consider semi-permeable membranes, whereas osmosis only considers semi-permeable membranes. Membrane permeability increases as concentration decreases. ¢ True FalseChapter 9- wk 6 Study Questions - Results Attempt 1 of 2 Written Nov 13, 2025 8:02 AM - Nov 13, 2025 8:13 AM Attempt Score 9/10-90 % Overall Grade (Highest Attempt) 9/ 10-90 % Question 1 1/ 1 point If calcium levels are low, cCAMP activity increases which leads to synthesis and release of parathyroid hormone. cAMP acts as a(n) O enzyme (O phosphorylating agent @ ligand (O second messenger Question 2 1/ 1 point Teeth can have a biofilm formed on the surface.
