Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Those solutions with more tonicity are hypertonic, and those solutions with less tonicity are hy-potonic.

ANS: B
Average body cellular fluid has a tonicity equal to a 0.9 solution of sodium chloride (NaCl; sometimes referred to as physiologic saline). Solutions with similar tonicity are called isotonic.
