Question

Follow the instructions provided in the laboratory exercise and answer the following questions as you proceed. Using the data from the Ph.LLS, journal, draw a graph of the NaCl concentration and % transmittance using the following axes. Use the table to record your different plot points. On the preceding graph, indicate the areas that correspond to the blood cells being in each of the following solutions: (A) isotonic solution: (B) hypertonic solution: (C) hypotonic solution. Physiological saline (0.9%) is isotonic. What concentration (mM) would be equivalent to physiological saline? Describe the net movement of water (into the cell, out of the cell, no net movement) when cells are placed in a (n): a. isotonic solution _____ b. hypotonic solution _____ c. hypertonic solution _____ A patient is given an IV (intravenous) of deionized water (water with no solutes). If a large volume of fluid is administered, predict the effects. Choose one of the words in parentheses for each blank to complete the sentence. Plasma becomes _____ (hypotonic/hypertonic) to the red blood cells. _____ Water moves from the (plasma or red blood cells) _____ to the (plasma or red blood cells) _____ causing the red blood cells to (crenate or swell). A person drinks ocean salt water (35% salt). If the person drinks a large volume of the salt water (the salt water is absorbed into the blood), the plasma becomes _____ (hypotonic/hypertonic) to the red blood cells. _____ Water moves from the (plasma or red blood cells) _____ to the (plasma or red blood cells) _____ causing the red blood cells to (crenate or swell). What would you predict if a patient was administered an IV containing a physiological saline solution (0.9% sodium chloride)? _____

Explanation / Answer

1) A patient is given an intravenous solution of deionised water. If large volume of fluid is administered, plasma becomes,

2) A person drinks oceaan salt water (3.5%) salts. If a person drinks a large volume of the salt water, the plasma becomes,

3) If a patient is aministered with physiological saline, there will be no movement of water between plasma and red blood cells.
