8. Water and Minerals / Water / Problema 1
Problema 1
Red blood cells are placed into a hypertonic saline solution (higher solute concentration than inside the cells). What will occur and why?
A
Water will move out of the RBCs into the surrounding solution, causing the cells to shrink (crenate) because water follows the higher extracellular solute concentration
B
Solutes will diffuse into the RBCs through the membrane lowering intracellular osmolarity and thereby drawing additional water into the cells until both compartments have equal solute content
C
There will be no net water movement because osmotic pressure is always perfectly counterbalanced by hydrostatic pressure in isolated cell suspensions
D
Water will move into the RBCs causing them to swell and potentially lyse because cells always take on water when placed in any solution that contains electrolytes
