Answer:
Solution A: crenation
Solution B: hemolysis
Solution C: hemolysis
Solution D: crenation
Solution E: crenation
Explanation:
Hemolysis is the rupturing of red blood cells, which results in the release of hemoglobin (from within the red blood cells) into the plasma. If a red blood cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, water will flow into the cell, the cell will swell and hemolysis will.
Crenation: when a red blood cell is placed in a <em>hypertonic solution (</em>such as highly saline solution), the red blood cell will lose water(osmosis) and will shrink in size. The red blood cell has undergone crenation.
In order for a red blood cell to prevent from undergoing hemolysis or crenation, the cell must be placed in an<em> isotonic solution, </em>i.e either in <u>0.9% (m/v) NaCl solution</u> or <u>5% glucose solution</u>
- Solution B and Solution C are hypotonic solution, thus red blood cell has undergone hemolysis.
- Solution A, D and E are hypertonic solution. thus red blood cell has undergone crenation
Answer:
Explanation:
Chemistry is the study of matter and the changes that matter undergoes. Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space.
