1) The cell's ability to maintain its shape depends on the tonicity of the surrounding solution.

2) When a red blood cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, it may burst due to the change in tonicity.

3) Tonicity refers to the concentration of solutes inside and outside the cell.

4) Isotonic solutions have the same tonicity as the cell, resulting in no net movement of water.

5) The tonicity of the solution can affect how water moves across a semipermeable membrane.

6) The nurse must understand the concept of tonicity when administering IV fluids.

7) Adjusting the tonicity of a solution can be crucial in medical treatments.

8) Cells can shrink or swell depending on the tonicity of the environment they are in.

9) Tonicity plays a role in maintaining osmotic balance within the body's cells.

10) Understanding tonicity is essential in preventing adverse reactions to IV medications.
