Why are intravenous solutions generally isotonic and not hypotonic or hypertonic what is the significance of normal saline?

Biology

Sholpan [36]3 years ago

Because it can induce osmosis.

The best solution for intravenous in most condition is isotonic because it will not upset the oncotic pressure of the blood. If you use hypertonic or hypotonic solution, the oncotic pressure can be altered and causing osmosis happen to the cell. The osmosis can cause injury to the cell as its water content will be changed.

AfilCa [17]

The trait of the dental gap is present in apes but absent in hominins.

<h3>What do you understand by hominins?</h3>

The term "hominin" refers to a group that includes all living humans, all extinct human species, and all of our direct predecessors (including members of the genera Homo, Australopithecus, Paranthropus, and Ardipithecus). Sahelanthropus, Orrorin, and Ardipithecus are the earliest hominins. Many characteristics that set humans apart from other primates were absent in the ancestors of the human lineage. Sahelanthropus tchadensis from the Chad and Orrorin tugenensis from Kenya are the oldest hominins that are currently known. The skull of Sahelanthropus, which dates to between 6 and 7 mya, is mostly complete, and there are also some additional fragmentary bones.

An experiment to measure the rate of respiration in crickets and mice at 10 degrees Celsius and 25 degrees Celsius was performed
larisa [96]

Answer:

A substance that removes carbon dioxide gas

Explanation:

Options-

A. A substance that removes carbon dioxide gas

B. A plant to produce oxygen

C. A glucose reserve

D. A valve to release excess water

Solution -

It is given that the rate at which oxygen is consumed and the rate at which carbon dioxide is produced is same. Therefore, if we somehow are able to measure the volume of carbon dioxide, we can interpolate the rate of consumption of oxygen from it.

Hence, A substance that removes carbon dioxide gas is essential to provide accurate volumetric measurements of oxygen gas consumption

Option A is correct
