Samples of blood were mixed with different sodium chloride solutions.
In one concentration of sodium chloride, the red blood cells were
observed to maintain their normal shape. In another concentration of
sodium chloride, the red blood cells were observed to swell and burst.
The cells which maintained their normal shape were in a state of
homeostasis. Which process BEST explains what happened to the red
blood cells which swelled and burst and why? (SB1d) *
