What are three different types of vacuoles and what are their functions?
I know of only three types: central vacuole - helps maintain plants' shape and structure by storing water (hypotonic). contractile vacuole - pumps water out of protist cells to maintain a suitable concentration. food vacuole - storage for molecules that is a food source for the cell (phagocytosis).
Organelle that pumps water out of the cell?
The Contractile Vacoule.
What does the vacoule do for a cell?
In plant cells there is 1 large vacuole that acts as the main water source for the plant. In animal cells, there are multiple small vacuoles scattered throughout the plant that act as water sources also.

What are the different types of ISAR System- Explain?

How are contractile vacuoles different from types of vacuoles?
Contractile vacuoles are formed when a food particle is engulfed. Their size depends on the size of food particle. They are not predefined. Other vacoules are predefined and exist whether the food particles are present in them or not.

Where contractile vacuoles are located in amoeba?
contractile vacuoles merge with the cell membrane..
What do contractile vacuoles protists do?
Contractile vacuoles in protists collect water and then expel it when they become full.
Why are contractile vacuoles surrounded by mitochondria?
Contractile vacuoles are responsible for regulating osmotic balance in unicellular organisms by expelling excess water. Having mitochondria surrounding the contractile vacuoles helps provide the necessary energy (in the form of ATP) for the vacuoles to pump out water efficiently. This ensures proper functioning of the contractile vacuoles in maintaining cellular homeostasis.
How are the vacuoles from paramecia different from the vacuoles of other organisms?
The paramecium might have a contractile vacuole, whereas cells like animal and plants just have a normal one.
Where does a protist with contractile vacuoles live?
Contractile vacuoles in protists collect water and then expel it when they become full.
Are contractile vacuoles found in animal or plant cells?
Contractile vacuoles are primarily found in single-celled organisms, such as protists, that live in freshwater environments. They help regulate the water content of the cell by pumping out excess water to prevent it from bursting. Neither animal nor plant cells typically possess contractile vacuoles.
What do vacuoles in protists do?
Contractile vacuoles in protists collect water and then expel it when they become full.
Marine protoza do not have contractile vacule?
That's correct, marine protozoa do not have contractile vacuoles. Contractile vacuoles are typically found in freshwater protozoa and serve to regulate water balance by expelling excess water from the cell. Marine protozoa have adaptations to maintain water balance in a high-salt environment without the need for contractile vacuoles.

Where does a protist that contains contractile vacuoles live?
fresh water
