3. Given that 0.3M Glucose is isotonic to blood cell cytoplasm, predict the fate of a red blood cell placed in each of the solutions below. Explain why these changes might take place. Hint: calculate osmolarity for each solution. Take into account that some solutes ionize and some do not. 0.3M Glucose 0.3M Naci 0.15M Naci. 4.0.3M Glycerin, 0.3M Urea are both 0.3M but their effect on RBCs is very different than 0.3M glucose, Glycerin is another name for glycerol, which is a relatively non-polar molecule. Urea is a small molecule, which passes through membranes easily by facilitated diffusion. Predict the fate of a red blood cell placed in each of the solutions below. Explain why these changes might take place. 0.3M glycerin 0.3M Urea 5. Did your results support your predictions? 5. Define Osmosis. 6. Define osmotic pressure. 7. Which of the following glucose solutions has the lowest osmotic pressure (compared to pure water)?
