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.

Answer: The correct option is D (Antimicrobials).

Explanation:

Antimicrobial treatment is defined as therapies that are given to patients to either inhibit or kill the growth of microorganisms IN their body cells. The antimicrobial treatment can be grouped into two based on their mechanism of action. These includes:

--> Microbiocidal therapy: This type of treatment when given, kills the microorganisms in the cells of the patient.

--> Microbiostatic therapy: This type of treatment aims at inhibiting the growth of microorganisms when administered to a patient.

The antimicrobial drugs achieve their role usually through their different modes of action which includes:

--> cell wall inhibition

--> inhibition of cell membrane function

--> protein and nucleic acid synthesis inhibition.

Disinfects, antiseptic and sterilisation are all different ways of eliminating microorganisms but not used as invitro (within) treatment for patients. Therefore the term that best matches the description given is antimicrobials.

lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

C) translation rate

Explanation:

The process of gene expression involves DNA transcription into mRNA and translation of mRNA into protein.

During transcription, genetic message in DNA is encoded into mRNA. The encoded messages are then translated into their respective amino acids during the process of translation.

<em>Hence, if a virus uses its genome as mRNA, the next stage will be to translate the messages in the mRNA into amino acids. Translation rate is expected to be measurable.</em>

The correct option is C.
