hypotonic solution
Q. In which solution more water enters the cells and results in swelling of the cells?
If placed in a hypotonic solution, water molecules will enter the cell, causing it to swell and burst. Plant cells (bottom panel) become plasmolyzed in a hypertonic solution, but tend to do best in a hypotonic environment.

Q. What is a real life example of isotonic solution?
Common examples of isotonic solutions are 0.9% normal saline and lactated ringers. These fluids are useful when the patient has lost fluid volume from blood loss, trauma, or dehydration due to excessive nausea/vomiting or diarrhea.
Q. Which of the following is hypertonic solution?
Seawater. Seawater has a high amount of salt particles compared to freshwater, making it a hypertonic solution. Freshwater fish can’t live in seawater because the water would rush from their cells into the surrounding saltwater.
Q. What are the side effects of saline nasal spray?
What are the side effects of sodium chloride-nasal spray?
- Allergic reaction (rare)
- Sneezing.

- Eye irritation if sprayed in the eye.
- Nose irritation.
- Abnormal taste.
