Q

solutions with fewer total number of solute particles as normal ECF are

A

hyposmotic

17
Q

solutions with more total number of solute particles as normal ECF are

A

hyperosmotic

18
Q

solution with the same amount of non penetrating molecules as normal ECF

A

isotonic

19
Q

solution with fewer amount of non penetrating molecules as normal ECF

A

hypotonic

20
Q

solution with a larger amount of non penetrating molecules as normal ECF

A

hypertonic

21
Q

isosmotic can be

A

hypotonic and isotonic

22
Q

hyperosmotic can be

A

hypertonic, isotonic or hypotonic

23
Q

hyposmotic can be

A

only hypertonic

24
Q

tonicity of ECF

A

300- same as osmolarity as Na and Cl are the main molecules in ECF and are also the non penetrating particles

25
Q

cells in hypotonic solutions will

A

swell- water enters down chemical gradient

less tonic more water in solution

26
Q

cells in a hypertonic solution will

A

shrink- water leaves down chemical gradient

more tonic less water in solution
