Paramecium is a unicellular consumer what functions must it carry out that a multicellular would not carry out?
Paramecium can take in food only at the cytostome. The cilia in the oral groove create a current of water which wafts the food organisms up to the cytostome where they are ingested in a food vacuole. This food vacuole then follows a specific route through the cytoplasm. On its travels, enzymes are secreted into the vacuole and the food is digested. The digested substances are then absorbed into the cytoplasm. Paramecium reproduce by binary fission.
Where are animal cell food particles digested at?
They are digested in the organelle called lyosome.
Organelle used to store digested food and water?
The organelle used to store digested food and water is known as the vacuole. The food is released and broken down whenever the cells need it.
How does a paramecium excrete?
As it moves along, enzymes from the cytoplasm enter the vacuole to digest the contents, digested nutrients then going into the cytoplasm, and the vacuole shrinks. When the vacuole reaches the anal pore, it ruptures, expelling its waste contents to the exterior
Why does the potato plant store starch and not sugar?
The potato does not store sugar because there is no sugar in it. The plant has starch in it which is then turned into "sugar" when it is eaten and digested. -when starch is digested, it turns to glucose. The organelle holding the startch grains are called leucoplasts.

mitochondria

Organelle that fuses with lysosomes in order that contents can be digested?
Vesicle

How does the structure of the villi assist with the utilization of digested fish?
how does the structure of the villi
How does a paremecium eat?
A paramecium eats by using it's cilia to sweep bacteria or food in it's oral groove, which then goes to it's gullet, where it is digested and then the digested fooed is sent to the food vacuole.
What organelle repairs other organelles?
Usually organelles are not repaired when they are broken. They simply get digested and recycled by the lysosome because the cell can always make more of a certain organelle.
What organelle has a stomach for a nickname?
In a plant cell for example, the vacuole is a large inter cellular space where ingested materials are stored and digested. This organelle could be referred to as the stomach
How do paramecium ingest?
Paramecium ingest food by phagocytosis. Food enters through oral grove to cell mouth, there it enters a food vacoule. The food vacoule fuses with lysosome and is broken down by enzymes. The food is digested in cytoplasm. All undigested food remains in now smaller food vacoule which goes to anal pore, special sight on plasma membrane, and release the contents by exocytosis in the enviroment.
What small intestine contains?
small intestine is a tube like structure,which is composed of smooth muscle cells.it can absorb the digested product of food which is digested by stomach.
