    solvent dissolves the solute, which then forms a solution, which is a mixture of two or more substances. There are three main kinds of solutions when it comes to solutes and solvents. These three solutions are called isotonic solutions, hypertonic solutions, and hypotonic solutions. An isotonic solution is a solution

    about hypotonic solutions when we placed the egg in water which caused the egg to swell. This process can also be defined as osmosis which is the diffusion of water molecules across a membrane. (Unknown, 2) When we first got the egg it would be an isotonic solution meaning that having equal tension (Unknown,1) which would mean that the same amount was inside the cell as outside of it. The purpose of the experiment was to learn about diffusion, concentration gradient, passive transport, The first day

    and their uses in the human body. There are three main types of sports drinks; Isotonic, Hypotonic and Hypertonic. A hypotonic drink will contain a lesser concentration of sugars and electrolytes in comparison with a human body - meaning it would be absorbed faster than water. They contain more solvent than solute, meaning it would be less concentrated than inside of a cell. Most sports drinks are classified as Isotonic, meaning the concentration of electrolytes is similar to that found inside the

    determined the isotonic and hemolytic molar concentrations of non-penetrating moles for sheep red blood cells and measured the absorbance levels from each concentration. The results concluded that as the concentration increased the absorbance reading increased as well. A higher absorbance signifies higher amounts of intact RBCs. The isotonic molar concentration for NaCl and glucose is 0.3 M. The hemolysis molar concentration for NaCl and glucose is 0.05 M. Adding red blood cells to an isotonic solution

    this experiment: isotonic, hypertonic, and hypotonic solutions. Isotonic is when the concentration of a solute is identical outside of the cell and inside of the cell. Hypertonic is when the concentration of solute is higher outside of the cell than inside of the cell.

    THE EFFECT OF OSMOSIS AND DIFFUSION ON POTATO Ivan Salazar The Effect of Osmosis and Diffusion on Potato Anatomy & Physiology Lab 2101-2002 February 7, 2016 The purpose of the Tonicity lab was to help identify the effects of an isotonic, hypertonic, and hypotonic solution to a slice of potato. The difference between diffusion and osmosis is that diffusion is the movement of particles or molecules from a region of higher concentration to a region of a lower concentration. While osmosis consists

    of hypertonic solution include 3% saline, D5/0.9% saline, D5/0.45% saline, and D5LR. Isotonic solution An isotonic solution is used to replenish volume from fluid loss. The solution stays in the vascular system to help increase the volume of blood. Examples of isotonic solutions include 0.9% saline, D5/0.225% saline, lactated ringers, whole blood, and packed red blood cells. D5W is also considered isotonic, but quickly converts to hypotonic because the body metabolizes the glucose. Hypotonic

  • Osmosis Lab Report

    625 Words  | 2 Pages

    Isotonic refers to a solution that when surrounding a cell causes no net movement of water into or out of a cell. Hypertonic deals with a solution that when is enclosing a cell will cause the cell to lose water. Lastly hypotonic is a solution that surrounds a cell and will cause it to take up water. When animal and plant cells go through these solutions they come across some similarities and of course differences. When an animal cell is stable in one solution. Through an isotonic solution

  • Egg Osmosis Lab Report

    predict that the egg in the hypertonic solution will shrink and lose mass because, there are more salt molecule (solution) and less water molecules in the salt than inside the egg therefore the h20 will the egg. (c) I predict that the egg in the isotonic solution will stay the same size & mass because, there will be the same amount of solutes & H2O inside and outside the egg therefore the H2O will go inside & outside the egg. (2) My hypothesis was not supported by

    Investigating the Water Potential of Celery Cells Aim === I will be investigating the water potential of celery and to find out which solution will be isotonic with the celery cells, in other words equilibrium between the two no water will leave the cell, or enter. I will do this by following this method. Method 1. Cut a 5 cm length of celery stem 2. Cut through the grooves to divide the stem into thin strips 3. Dry the cell sap from the strips using a paper towel 4.

  • Brand Positioning Case Study

    736 Words  | 2 Pages

    Brand positioning refers to “target consumer’s” reason to buy your brand in preference to others. It involves identifying and determining points of similarity and difference to ascertain the right brand identity and to create a proper brand image. A significant differential advantage can lead customers to focus on product benefits other than price. Brand Positioning is the key of marketing strategy. A strong brand positioning directs marketing strategy by explaining the brand details, the uniqueness

    of water will go into the cell, the cell will expand, and the solution would be hypotonic to the cell. In an isotonic solution, there will be no net movement, the cell would not change in size, and the solution will be isotonic to the cell. Continuing further, hypertonic solution includes more dissolved solute while the hypotonic solution holds less dissolved solute. Lastly, in an isotonic solution, it had the same amount of dissolved

    hypotonic solution, is one that will make a cell swell as water freely flows into it, sometimes causing the cell to burst. An isotonic solution is the median between the two, it is a solution in which a cell is not losing or gaining water, and so the cell stays the same as it was before it was in the solution (Urry et al. 2014). Most animal cells prefer to be in an isotonic solution so they don’t have to swell and shrink, but most plant cell excel in hypotonic solutions that allow them to suck up
