Answer :
Final answer:
Based on the volumes of the components listed, the correct order from the most diluted to the most concentrated solution of red dye would normally start with the largest amount (water) and end with the smallest amount (dye). Hence, option 1 fits this pattern.
Explanation:
The question appears to be asking for the correct order of fluids that would create a solution of red dye in water, going from the most diluted to the most concentrated. Without additional context, the answer is not entirely clear, as there seems to be no provided sequence or additional data indicating how the fluids should be mixed or in what order to achieve varying concentrations. Typically, to achieve a gradient of dilution, one would start with the most substantial volume of the most dilute component (water in this case) and progress to the smallest volume of the most concentrated component (the dye).
Considering this, the most logical order from most dilute to most concentrated, based only on the volumes given, would be starting with the option that lists water first, progressing to the option that lists dye last:
Correct Order:
16 oz water,
12 oz standard arterial fluid,
12 oz bright red dye,
warm water
Therefore, based on the volumes stated, option 1 would be the correct choice if the assumption is correct that the concentration of the red dye should increase in each subsequent step.
