It is true.

<h3>What is isotonic medium?</h3>
  • A solution that has the same amount of salt as cells and blood. In hospitalized patients, isotonic solutions are routinely utilized as intravenous fluids.
  • When a cell is immersed in an isotonic solution, there is no net movement of water into or out of the cell, and the volume of the cell remains constant.
  • Isotonic solutions include 0.9% normal saline and lactated ringers. A hypertonic solution is one that has a greater solute concentration than the solution across the semi-permeable barrier.
  • The isotonic solution allows the cells to move water and nutrients in and out of the cells. This is necessary for the blood cells to perform their function of supplying oxygen and other nutrients to other parts of the body.

FinnZ [79.3K]
This type of passive transportation is called OSMOSIS.
Osmosis is a type of passive transportation in which a liquid moves from the region of high concentration to the region of low concentration. The movement usually continues until the amount of liquid on both sides are the same. This type of movement does not require energy because the flow is naturally favored, that is, molecules moves from high end to low end.
