Alveoli
The medical term for abnormal accumulation of fluid in a saclike cavity is "hydrops" or "hydrosac." This condition can occur in various body cavities or structures, leading to swelling and potential complications. Treatment typically involves addressing the underlying cause of the fluid buildup.
VacuoleThe saclike storage structure found in both animal and plant cells is the vacuole. A vacuole is a membrane enclosed structure that is filled with water containing various dissolved substances.
Vacuoles are saclike organelles that store materials such as water, nutrients, and waste products within plant and fungal cells. Vacuoles help maintain cell turgor pressure, support the cell structure, and can also perform functions like waste isolation and pigment storage.
Vacuole is the saclike structure within a cell that stores materials such as water, nutrients, and waste products for use by the cell. Vacuoles help maintain the cell's shape, regulate its internal environment, and facilitate processes like digestion and waste removal.
Saclike outpocketings of the large intestine wall are called diverticula. They can develop due to increased pressure within the colon, typically from constipation, and may lead to diverticulosis or diverticulitis if inflamed or infected. Adequate dietary fiber intake and staying hydrated can help prevent their formation.
Deoxygenated blood is pumped through the pulmonary arteries to the alveoli, which are the small, elastic saclike structures in the lungs. In the alveoli, carbon dioxide is exchanged for oxygen during the process of respiration. This oxygenated blood is then returned to the heart to be circulated throughout the body.

A bursae is a sack like structure that is filled with viscid fluid. The main purpose of the bursae sack is to protect tendons.
The saclike organs that extract waste from the blood of arthropods are called Malpighian tubules. These structures are responsible for the excretion of nitrogenous waste and help maintain osmoregulation by filtering hemolymph, the fluid equivalent to blood in these animals. The waste is then excreted as uric acid or other forms, depending on the species.

Parasites such as tapeworm, planarian and live fluke have digestive systems that are saclike. Their digestive tracts have one opening and they live inside a host animal.
