Question

What will happen when red blood cells are placed in 1% nacl solution?

Answer 1

0.9% of NaCl is isotonic to RBCs.So when it placed in 0.1% NaCl solution,endo-osmosis occur.The water enter into the RBCs and the cell become swell and it finally bursts out(haemolysis of RBCs occur) and this process is known as hypotonic . ... 0.9% NaCl is same concentration as blood (isotonic =normal saline).

hope helps you

Answer 2

Question:

What will happen when red blood cells are placed in 1% nacl solution?

Concept:

Experiments of red red blood cells.

Answer and explanation:

0.9% of NaCl is isotonic to red blood cells and it is placed in 0.1% NaCl solution then endo-osmosis occurs. Water enters into the red blood cells and the cell starts to swell and at a moment the cell brusts bursts out(haemolysis of RBCs occur) and this process is known as hypotonic. 0.9% NaCl is same concentration as blood (isotonic =normal saline).The absorption of extra water by cells without a cell wall, such as animal cells, can create enough pressure to cause cytolysis, or cell rupturing. A 1% NaCl solution is a hypertonic solution which causes RBC cells to shrink.
