Osmosis and tonicity
Sergio039 [100]

The blood cells likely placed in a "hypotonic solution".

<u>Option: A</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

When human blood cells are immersed in a solution with a low concentration of solute than is present in cells, osmosis allows water to pass through the cells, allowing the cells to get swollen; such a fluid is hypotonic to the cells. But when held in a solution with a greater concentration of solute, osmosis allows water to pass out of the cell, the cell is smaller and crenated in form; then a solution is hypertonic to the cells.

Healthcare facilities preserve human blood cells in a plasma solution that has the proper salt and protein ratios. Such solution is formulated to be mildly hypertonic to the red cells, thus maintaining the integrity of the cells and avoiding hemolysis.

Ralph's radial nerve may be getting compressed

Explanation:

Based on the information provided within the question it seems that Ralph's radial nerve may be getting compressed. This nerve, which is located in the armpit region, if compressed can cause temporary cessation of nervous transmission which is what causes numbness (as Ralph is feeling). If this compression continues for too long it can also cause permanent nerve damage.
