Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

Once blood tonicity is negatively impacted, the consequences can't be reversed because this tonicity permanently damaged the cell. For example, in hypotonic solution, If the water continues to move into the cell due to high solute concentration, it can damaged the cell membrane, the cell bursts and dies. But it can be reversed if the cell loses its water and become shrink in hypertonic solution and regain its original size by normalizing the water level.
