A patient produces a urine specimen having a specific gravity of 1.005. Red blood cells present in the urine sediment will:
A) appear as ghost cells, due to the low specific gravity.
B) be hemolyzed, due to the high specific gravity.
C) appear normal, due to the normal specific gravity.
D) appear crenated, due to the high specific gravity.
