Water is constantly coming down it's concentrations gradient and osmotically entering the paramecium's cell. The cell would soon burst if there were not a way to offload much of this water, so contractile vacuoles do this job for the paramecium.
Eliminates the excess water taken on by the paramecium because this organism is in a hypotonic environment.
Eliminate excess water
paramecium has the contractile vacuole yooo!
the paramecium is bad medicene
no they have only one contractile vacuole because of it's environment, soil or water. A paramecium has two contractile vacuoles.
Water is pumped out of the cell through the contractile vacuole.
The contractile vacuole should be active when the paramecium is in water. We learned in 6th grade science that a contractile vacuole pumps water out of the cell to prevent it from getting too much water by osmosis. Without working contractile vacuoles, the cell would get too big and might die!

If a paramecium did not have a contractile vacuole or it did not work it would fill with water and lyse.

contractile vacuole
it pumps water into the cells
i don't know sorry
Sure I guess well kind of... not really

Contractile proteins are found in what?
