One electron is transferred in the ionic bond because sodium needs to lose one electron and chlorine needs to gain one electron to have a full energy shell, which is the ultimate goal in any bond.

Answer:
The water is hypotonic to the body of the patients
Explanation:
<em>Pure water is generally hypotonic to the red blood cells in the body of humans. Hence, if a person is hooked up to an IV line that included pure water, the red blood cells in the person's body will take-in water, become turgid, and then start lysing. This will make the person become sick or even cause death in severe cases.</em>
Answer: A
The cells would lose water and shrink. In a hypertonic solution, the
concentration of solute is higher than water in a cell. With this, there is a
net movement of water from inside to outside initiating water to lose from the
cytoplasm and vacuole causing the cell to shrink due to osmosis and achieve
equilibrium.
This process is applied in food preservation where microbial cells will
be dehydrated in a hypertonic environment, making them malfunction and preventing
them to cause food spoilage.
