Question

The osmotic pressure of the extracellular fluid (ECF) will increase, relative to the intracellular fluid, when: Water leaves cells. The number of particles in the ECF. per unit volume, increases. The size of each particle in the ECF increases. An iso-osmotic solution of glucose is infused. An isotonic contraction of the extracellular fluid will lead to: Choose 1 best answer: A fall in extracellular fluid volume and increased plasma protein concentration. An increased plasma sodium concentration and decreased intracellular fluid volume. A fall in plasma sodium concentration. An increased plasma sodium concentration and decreased hematocrit.

Explanation / Answer

20) the answer is option (d) when iso-osmotic glucose is infused. This will make the outer environment more hypertonic results in water coming out from the cell. When water comes out from the cell it is given outside the cell which increases the osmotic pressure outside the cells..!!

21) the answer is option (a) It will allow the fall the extracellur fluid volume increases plasma concentration..
