Biology on Instagram: "Osmotic burst is when red blood cells swell and rupture after absorbing too much water in a hypotonic solution. Water rushes in, the membrane can't hold, and the cell pops. Erythrocytes (top) and leukocytes (bottom) subjected to a cyclic osmotic change (from isotonic to hypertonic, back to isotonic and finally to hypotonic distilled water). When exposed to hypertonic solution, the cells shrink. When exposed to destile water, they swell and burst - erythrocytes become "ghos
