QUESTION 38
A patient has had a serious accident and lost a lot of blood. In
an attempt to replenish body fluids, distilled water, equal to the
volume of blood lost, is transferred directly into one of his
veins. What will be the most probable result of this
transfusion?

is hypotonic compared to the cells.
C.
The patient's red blood cells will crenate because the blood
fluid is hypotonic compared to the cells.
D.
The patient's red blood cells will crenate because the blood
fluid is hypertonic compared to the cells.
