Remain stable since RBCs have cellulose in their cell membrane

Shrivel and burst

Shrivel but not burst

Swell until they developed a reverse hydrostatic pressure

Hypertonic

Isotonic

None of these solutions will cause damage to cells

Hypotonic

Iso-osmotic

Relates to all non-penetrating solute particles in a solution

Is determined by all solute particles in a solution

Compares a solution and a cell

Requires prior knowledge of non-penetrating particles

Describes what happens to the cell in the solution

Hydrostatic pressure

Osmolarity is expressed in osmolar units whilst tonicity is expressed in mm Hg hydrostatic pressure

Osmolarity depends on the concentration of particles in solution while tonicity tells us the fate of a cell placed in a solution

Osmolarity and tonicity describe the movement of water in a beaker separated into two compartments by an impermeable membrane

Osmolarity and tonicity describe the movement of water in a beaker separated into two compartments by a totally permeable membrane

Two solutions which are iso-osmotic can never be isotonic to a cell

concentration of water molecules inside and outside the cell

thickness of the cell membrane

rate of movement of insoluble molecules inside the cell

temperature

rate of molecular motion on either side of the cell membrane

No net water movement

Net water movement out of the cell

Decrease in cell volume

Increase in cell volume

Cannot be determined without knowing the body's temperature
