The food vacuole is also called as digestive vacuole. It is an organelle that can be found in parasites. This is the organelle that causes malaria.
What else can I help you with?
What is a vacuole membrane?
A vacuole membrane is a membrane that surrounds a vacuole, a cellular organelle found in plant and fungal cells. The membrane helps to separate the contents of the vacuole from the rest of the cell and regulates the movement of molecules in and out of the vacuole.
A food vacuole can take up much of the what of a cell?
A food vacuole can take up much of the space on the inside of the cell. This is because it acts as storage for the cell.
How does a amoeba use a food vacuole?
An amoeba uses a food vacuole to digest and break down food particles that it engulfs. The vacuole contains enzymes that help in the process of intracellular digestion, allowing the amoeba to absorb nutrients for energy and growth. Once digestion is complete, any undigested material is expelled from the cell.
How does a sarcodine engulf food?
Sarcodines extend their pseudopods around the food particle, forming a temporary food vacuole. The vacuole then fuses with lysosomes, containing enzymes that break down the food into smaller molecules that can be absorbed by the cell.
Which organelle is used for storage of food water or waste?
The vacuole is the organelle that stores food, water, and waste. They're are present in both plant and animal cells, but are more prominent in plant cells. Their main functions are to hold food and water, export substances that could be harmful, and maintain an even pressure and pH balance within the cell.
What part of the human body is like a vacuole?
A vacuole is a fat cell. A vacuole stores food for the purpose of support when the body is not getting the proper nutrition it needs.
What process does a paramecium use to make a food vacuole?
A paramecium uses phagocytosis to form a food vacuole. In this process, the paramecium surrounds the food particle with its cell membrane, forming a vacuole containing the food. The food vacuole then fuses with lysosomes to digest the food.
What is the purpose for sugar in cell?
If you are asking about plant cells, then sugars are stored, along with salts, in the vacuole, for food for the plant. &:-)
What is a food vacuole?
A membrane-bound vacuole (as in an ameba) where ingested food is digested.
What does the food vacuole do in a paramecium?
The food vacuole in a paramecium is a structure that forms during phagocytosis to engulf and digest food particles. It helps break down the food into simpler compounds that can be absorbed and utilized by the paramecium for energy and nutrients. Once digestion is complete, the food vacuole expels any remaining waste materials from the cell.
How do amoebas digest food?
The amoeba surrounds the food with psuedopods and forms a food vacuole. This vacuole then digests the food with digestive enzymes.
Where is protists food digested?
food vacuole:)
What is the purpose of a vacuole in a cell?
The central vacuole of a mature plant cell typically takes up most of the room in the cell. The vacuole, a membranous bag, crowds the cytoplasm and organelles to the edges of the cell. The central vacuole stores water, salts, sugars, proteins, other nutrients, and the pigments that give flowers their colors. The central vacuole also contains plant wastes that taste bitter to certain insects, thus discouraging the insects from feasting on the plant.
What stores food and waste in a cell?
Well the answer to your question is (Plasma).
Is vacuole a cell?
yes, the vacuole is the cell that stores food,water ect.
How does an ameba form a food vacuole?
through budding of the vacuole from the plasma membrane
What substance enter into the food vacuole in amoeba to break down the food?
Enzymes are the substances that enter the food vacuole in amoebas to break down the food into smaller molecules that can be absorbed by the cell. These enzymes help in the process of digestion within the food vacuole.
