Option 4 : Hypertonic Solution
Concept:
- Isotonic solution -> which is equal concentration with the body fluid
- Hypotonic solution -> which is having less concentration when compared with body fluid
- Hypertonic solution-> which is having higher concentration when compared with body fluid
- Osmosis -> movement of solvent through a selective permeable membrane from higher concentration to lower concentration
- Simple diffusion -> movement of molecues from higher concetration to lower concentration
- Hypertonic solutions are higher in its concentration which causes the fluid to move out of cell and causes cell shrinkage
- 3% NACL is the hypertonic solution
- 0.45% NACL is hypotonic solution
- 0.9% NACL is isotonic solution
