What pumps excess water from the cell helping to maintain homeostasis?
The vacuole is usually the organelle that pumps water out of the cell. Most of the time protists do this.
How do contractile vacuole help balance water?
By contracting rhythmically, this specialized vacuole pumps excess water out of the cell. That helps them maintain water balance.

What do contractile vacuoles do?
A contractile vacuole is an organelle from a protist cell. It forces water out of the pores to reduce osmotic pressure and prevents the cell from bursting.
How does the contractile in a paramecium help maintain homeostasis?
The contractile vacuole in a paramecium excretes excess freshwater in the organism. It does this continually because water is constantly diffusing into their cytoplasm. This occurs because freshwater paramecium live in a hypotonic environment.
What structure expels excess water in the amoeba?
The water content is expelled by the contractile vacuole.
How does a cell keep from taking in excess water?
Osmosis.
What pumps out water from cell?
Some protazoans have a contractile vacuole which is an organ that pumps water out of cells. Other cells don't have these and instead water moves out by osmosis.
What happens when excess water enters the plant cell?
If excess water moves into an animal cell, it will eventually burst. This happens if the cell is placed in a hypotonic solution (a solution with a lower solute concentration than the cell).
How do protozoans pump out water?
I'm not sure about other Protozoans but Paramecium, a freshwater ciliate, pumps out excess water with it's Contractile Vacuoles.
What does contractille vacuole do?
They are organelles that collect excess water inside the cell and force the water out of the cell.contractile vacuoles are used in animal cells to remove the excess water
