Drinking alcohol can cause dehydration, which makes the blood hypertonic. Which option best describes the consequences of this hypertonic blood?
a. Hypertonic blood forces water into the interstitial fluid, which makes the interstitial fluid hypotonic. This, in turn, makes the interstitial fluid lose water to the cells b. Hypertonic blood draws water out of the interstitial fluid, which makes the interstitial fluid hypertonio. This, in turn, draws water out of the cells. c.
