Summary Introduction

To contrast: The effects of a hypotonic and hypertonic solution on a red blood cell. .

Introduction: The diffusion of water molecules or solutes from a region of higher concentration gradient to a region of lower concentration gradient through a semi permeable membrane is known as osmosis. Tonicity of a cell refers to the effect of a solution on the cell. There are three types of tonicity namely hypertonic, hypotonic, or isotonic.
