A Hypotonic solution is one in which the concentration of solutes impermeable to the cell membrane is lower than that within the cell in question, this directs the net flow of water into the cell. As animal cells, including red blood cells do not have Cell Walls to limit the swelling they will continue to take in water until they burst under the pressure.
A hypotonic solution has a lower concentration of solutes compared to the solution it is being compared to. When a cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, water will move into the cell causing it to swell and potentially burst due to osmotic pressure.
In isotonic solution nothing ail happen. In hypertonic solution fluid will leave the cell to dilute the external fluid, causing the cell to crenate. In Hypotonic solution fluid will move into the cell to dilute the contents of the cell, causing it to bust or haemolyse.
If a human red blood cell is placed in a hypotonic environment (lower solute concentration outside the cell), water will move into the cell, causing it to swell and potentially burst due to osmotic stress. This is known as hemolysis.
hypertonic solution, causing water to leave the cell and causing it to shrink and become distorted in shape.
Yes, pure water is hypotonic to red blood cells, meaning that it has a lower concentration of solutes compared to the inside of the cells. When placed in a hypotonic solution, red blood cells may take in water and potentially burst due to the influx of water.

If a cell is placed into a hypotonic solution, the water will flow into the cell causing it to swell and possibly lyse. If a cell is placed into a hypertonic solution, the water will flow out of the cell causing it to crenate. So hemolysis occurs when the red blood cells lyse.

Hemolysis occurs when a blood cell is placed into a hypotonic solution, causing water to rush into the cell and burst it open. This can happen when the concentration of solutes outside the cell is lower than inside, leading to osmotic imbalance and cell lysis.
When a human red blood cell is placed in a hypotonic environment, it iwll undergo cytolysis, which basically means it will explode.
Hypotonic, meaning that the solution has a lower concentration of solutes compared to the inside of the cell. This creates a concentration gradient that drives water molecules to move into the cell to balance the solute concentration.
Swell and possibly burst depending on how hypotonic the solution was and how much of it was injected. However the human body has evolved many simple and complex ways to deal with these situations and therefore a small amount of hypotonic solution will likely cause no effect to your cells.
