    Answer: Hypertonic, Hypotonic, Colloid

    Explanation:

    Osmosis is a process whereby a solvent moves through a cell membrane from a solution of lower concentration to a solution of higher concentration.

    Hypertonic solution has more solutes than the bloodstream this causes solutes, it moves from intracellular fluid to extracellular fluid when a hypertonic solution is used.

    A hypotonic solution has a lower solute concentration than the bloodstream, and this causes fluid to move from extracellular spaces into the cells, causing cells to swell.

    Oncontic pressure is the opposite force that pulls fluid colloids such as albumin to move into the capillaries. When hydrostatic pressure is greater, fluid will leave the capillaries, when onctoic pressure is greater fluid will enter the capillaries.

    No fluid shift is observed in an isotonic solution, because an isotonic solution, has the same solute concentration as blood, meaning an isotonic IV solution is equal in concentration to the blood and hence no fluid shift.
