Detailed Solution

  • If red blood cells are placed in hypertonic solution, they shrink.
  • This is because of ex-osmosis where water is drawn out of the cell and into the surrounding solution
  • If the same blood cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, the blood cell grows in size. 
  • Blood cells in isotonic solutions do not shrink or swell.
