"Isotonic Means the Same for Every Cell"
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.

Show
A solution isotonic to a red blood cell is not automatically isotonic to a plant cell, since their osmolarities differ.
Watch for
Tonicity has no meaning stated alone — it describes a relation between one solution and one cell's cytoplasm.
