contractile vacuoles
The organelles that collect excess water inside the cell and force it out are called contractile vacuoles. It is primarily involved in osmoregulation and is usually found in protists and unicellular algae.
The vacuole is usually the organelle that pumps water out of the cell. Most of the time protists do this.
A contractile vacuole is a type of vacuole involved in osmoregulation. It pumps excess water out of a cell and is found prominently in freshwater protists. In a Paramecium, a common freshwater protist, the vacuole is surrounded by several canals, which absorb water by osmosis from the cytoplasm. After the canals fill with water, the water is pumped into the vacuole. When the vacuole is full, it expels the water through a pore in the cytoplasm which can be opened and closed. This pore has, in some forms of paramecium, disappeared entirely when in use, leading to the idea of a "second cell" in paramecium. Other protists, such as Amoeba, have contractile vacuoles that move to the surface of the cell when full and undergo exocytosis. The contractile vacuole basically stores the extra water, in cells (mostly ciliates) in itself, so if there's a change in environment, a drought for example, the contractile vacuole can release more water into the cell. But if there's a flood, this vacuole will suck a lot of excess water out.
protects the leaves from excess of water or loss of water.
The function of a CO2 snuffing system is to prevent fires. A fire produces CO2, so bathing it in excess CO2 will cause the reaction to move in the opposite direction.

A specific type of vacuole, called a contractile vacuole expels excess water from many fresh water protists.

The function is to get rid of excess mucus.
Protists excrete waste products such as carbon dioxide, ammonia, and other metabolic byproducts from their cells. This helps maintain internal balance and prevents the accumulation of toxic substances. Excretion also allows protists to regulate osmotic balance by expelling excess water and ions.

Most will have a contractile vacuole that will pump out excess water to avoid turgor pressure.
