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
