What else can I help you with?
Where does the paramecium store his food?
A paramecium stores its food in small vacuoles within its cytoplasm. These vacuoles form when the paramecium engulfs food particles through a process called phagocytosis. Once inside the vacuoles, enzymes help digest the food for energy.
What happens when a lysosome fuses with a vacuole?
Vacuoles store things, so it would make sense that food vacuoles store food. Lysosomes digest things into smaller usable materials (or destroy them) so lysosomes will attach to food vacuoles so they can efficiently digest food. The vacuole to store the food waiting to be digested by the lysosome.
What stores food in amoeba?
Food is stored in food vacuoles within an amoeba. When an amoeba engulfs food particles through phagocytosis, the food vacuole forms around the ingested material. Enzymes then break down the food inside the vacuole for digestion.
Food vacuoles fuse with what?
When food vacuoles fuse with lysozymes (type of organelle), the digestive enzymes in the lysozyme digest the food particles. This is how intracellular digestion occurs, the feeding mechanism for many prokaryotes and even some cells in the human body such as macrophages which engulf foreign cells.
How do the cells digest the food that is stored in the vacuoles?
the cells absorb it into the cytoplasm
Why might a lysosome fuse with or link with a food vacuole?
Vacuoles store things, so it would make sense that food vacuoles store food. Lysosomes digest things into smaller usable materials (or destroy them) so lysosomes will attach to food vacuoles so they can efficiently digest food. The vacuole to store the food waiting to be digested by the lysosome.

Why might lysosome fuse with or link up with a food vacuole?
Vacuoles store things, so it would make sense that food vacuoles store food. Lysosomes digest things into smaller usable materials (or destroy them) so lysosomes will attach to food vacuoles so they can efficiently digest food. The vacuole to store the food waiting to be digested by the lysosome.
Why might a lysosome fuse with or link up a food vacuole?
Vacuoles store things, so it would make sense that food vacuoles store food. Lysosomes digest things into smaller usable materials (or destroy them) so lysosomes will attach to food vacuoles so they can efficiently digest food. The vacuole to store the food waiting to be digested by the lysosome.
Why might a lysosome fuse with link up with a food vacuole?

What is the function of the food vacuole in the paramecium?
to digest the food.
