Answer:

Explanation:

Distilled water has no contaminants and minerals thus the solute concentration inside the RBC is more than water. Water moves towards high solute concentration, therefore, water will go inside the RBC and burst it. This is why no RBC will be seen. You could see remanants of burst open and defective RBC but healthly RBC wont be there.
