Solutions having osmotic pressures more than those of body fluids are called Group of answer choices hyposmotic. neosmotic. hyperosmotic. magnosmotic. isosmotic.

Respuesta :

Answer:

hyperosmotic

Explanation:

Osmosis across a membrane occurs in nature as a result of concentration gradient i.e. difference in the solute concentration. Based on the concentration of solute in a solution which determines the osmotic pressure, a solution can either be hyperosmotic, hypoosmotic or isosmotic.

A hyperosmotic solution is that solution which contains more solute concentration in relation to another solution. In essence, a hyperosmotic solution will have more osmotic pressure than that of the body fluid. This will cause water to flow out of the body into the solution.
