Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Cells are regarded as the simplest unit (structural and functional) of life. Cellular membrane, nucleus, and cytoplasm are the three major components of a cell. Cellular membrane which surrounds the entire cell is composed of phospholipids and proteins. The nucleus is bound by a nuclear membrane, and it possesses the genetic material of the cell. Cytoplasm consists of organelles, cytoskeleton (filaments and tubules), and inclusion bodies. Protoplasm denotes all living material that are present in the cell enclosed by the cellular membrane (inside and outside the nucleus).

Explain how tonicity is different from osmolality.
If a person was severely dehydrated and the osmolarity of their blood and tissue fluids was at 500 mOsm/L while their intracellular osmolarity was 300 mOsm/L; explain what would happen via osmosis.
Calculate the change in osmolarity and the volume of extracellular and intracellular fluid when a hypertonic or hypotonic solution is added
