hope this helps.

membrane-bound organelle found in certain protists that pumps fluid in a cyclical manner from within the cell to the outside by alternately filling and then contracting to release its contents at various points on the surface of the cell. It functions in maintaining osmotic equilibrium.

What is semicontract the plant?

Semicontract plants refer to plants that are in between contractile and non-contractile plants in terms of their ability to contract. Contractile plants have the ability to shorten in response to external stimuli, while non-contractile plants do not. Semicontractile plants exhibit some degree of contraction but not as much as contractile plants.


Marine protoza do not have contractile vacule?

That's correct, marine protozoa do not have contractile vacuoles. Contractile vacuoles are typically found in freshwater protozoa and serve to regulate water balance by expelling excess water from the cell. Marine protozoa have adaptations to maintain water balance in a high-salt environment without the need for contractile vacuoles.

What do contractile vacuoles in plants do?

Contractile vacuoles in plants help regulate water content and maintain osmotic balance by periodically expelling excess water out of the cell. This process is crucial in preventing the cell from bursting due to osmotic pressure buildup.
