Red blood cells are placed in water that has been distilled so there are no solutes dissolved in the water. Are the red blood ce
Thepotemich [5.8K]


Red blood cells will swell and burst.

The reason behind this is that red blood cells are okay when they are in the plasma (the watery part of the blood) because the solutes in plasma are so  well balanced that plasma is rendered isotonic. An isotonic solution is a type of solution that has the same salt concentration as its surrounding environment and thus the substances around it e.g. cells neither gain nor lose water. In the blood plasma, the red blood cells neither lose nor gain water  and so they remain intact.

However distilled water is hypotonic (has less or no solutes) and therefore osmosis will take place when red blood cell which have a higher solute concentration are placed in it. Water molecules will leave the distilled water and pass into the red blood cells through the semi-permeable membrane of the cells in an attempt to equalize the difference in osmotic pressure on either side of the membrane. In so doing, water will accumulate in the cell which will then swell to capacity and ultimately burst.

Draw and label a segment of dna showing its helix and complementary base pairing
mafiozo [28]
Attached are two images concerning DNA. 

The first image is a diagram that illustrates the base paring of DNA. First, there is the ribose-phosphate backbone that keeps the DNA together. Then the bases thymine and adenine are joined together by two hydrogen bonds. On the other hand, the bases guanine and cytosine are joined together by three hydrogen bonds. 

The second image shows the helical structure of the DNA.
