Define :- Hypertonic , Hypotonic With example .
Answers
Answer:
hypertonic :
hypertonic solution is one which has highest solute concentration that another solution .
example- example of hypertonic solution is the interior of a red blood cell compared with the solute concentration of freshwater .
hypotonic :
A hypotonic solution is any solution that has a lower osmotic pressure than another solution.
example- the organism are constantly cycling solutes to keep the contents of their cells filled with water .
Answer:
Hypertonic :-
having higher osmotic pressure than particular fluid .
Example :-
A solution of 5% dextrose (sugar) and 0.45% sodium chloride is an example of a hypertonic solution - so is a solution of 5% dextrose and 0.9% sodium chloride.
An example of a hypertonic solution that has glucose dissolved into it is any plain glucose solution with a concentration higher than 5%.
Hypotonic :-
having lower osmotic pressure than particular fluid .
Example :-
A common example of a hypotonic solution is 0.45% normal saline (half normal saline).
When a patient develops diabetic ketoacidosis, the intracellular space becomes dehydrated, so the administration of a hypotonic solution helps to rehydrate the cells.
