Question

you made a wet mount slide of each blood/solution mixture when testing for tonicity. what did you learn from this? multiple choice both opaque tubes contained completely normal - looking blood cells. the difference in tonicity did not affect the red blood cells at all. in the tube with the highest concentration of solutes, the cells had shriveled (crenated). the red blood cells were too small to block light. temperature had a significant effect on the red blood cells.

Explanation:

Tonicity affects cell - water movement. In a hypertonic solution (high solute concentration), water moves out of the cells, causing them to shrivel (crenation).

Answer:

In the tube with the highest concentration of solutes, the cells had shriveled (crenated)
