A red blood cell placed in distilled water will swell and burst due

Sagot :

a red blood cell placed in water will swell and burst due to osmosis. Osmosis happens when water moves to an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. Since the inside of a red blood cell has less pressure than the water exerts on the cell, it will cause the cell to expand and then burst.
