What happens when a lysosome fuses with a vacuole?
Vacuoles store things, so it would make sense that food vacuoles store food. Lysosomes digest things into smaller usable materials (or destroy them) so lysosomes will attach to food vacuoles so they can efficiently digest food. The vacuole to store the food waiting to be digested by the lysosome.
Do vacuoles digest molecules?
no they only store food material
Food vacuoles fuse with what?
When food vacuoles fuse with lysozymes (type of organelle), the digestive enzymes in the lysozyme digest the food particles. This is how intracellular digestion occurs, the feeding mechanism for many prokaryotes and even some cells in the human body such as macrophages which engulf foreign cells.
How do the cells digest the food that is stored in the vacuoles?
the cells absorb it into the cytoplasm
Why might a lysosome fuse with or link with a food vacuole?
Vacuoles store things, so it would make sense that food vacuoles store food. Lysosomes digest things into smaller usable materials (or destroy them) so lysosomes will attach to food vacuoles so they can efficiently digest food. The vacuole to store the food waiting to be digested by the lysosome.

What digest excess food particles in a cell?
Lysosomes digest the excess food particles in a cell, and they also protect it from foreign invaders.
What is the function of the food vacuole in the paramecium?
to digest the food.
