    Based on the result‚ what is known now is when osmolarity is low‚ the hemolysis is high; while when osmolarity is high‚ the hemolysis is low. This supports the hypothesis if the erythrocytes were placed into a high osmotic solution‚ then the erythrocytes would have a lower hemolysis percentage. As shown in graph 1‚ when the erythrocytes were placed into the tube containing 250 to 390 osmolarity of solution‚ the erythrocytes results in below 26 hemolysis percentage. When the erythrocytes were placed

    Blood Water Homeostasis or Osmoregulation Osmoregulation is the process by which the body regulated the osmotic pressure of any organism’s fluids in order to keep the homeostasis of the organisms’ water level constant. Therefore osmoregulation is used to keep the bodily fluid from being too diluted or too concentrated. An osmotic pressure is used to measure the ability of water to move from one solution to another solution through osmosis. Osmotic pressure refers to tendency for a liquid solution
