To do this, red blood cells were examined in solutions of three different saline concentrations, 9% salt concentration, 1.8% salt concentration, and 0% salt concentration. A solution of 9% salt is isotonic to red blood cells. A solution of >9% salt is hypertonic to red blood cells. A solution of <9% is hypotonic to red blood cells. In tube one, the blood cells were placed in a tube with the volume of stock 300mM NaCl…
