A paramecium does not squirt water out. It takes in water through its oral groove for feeding and expels excess water through a contractile vacuole to maintain osmotic balance within its cell.

What adaptations do sea squirts have?

Sea squirts have a unique adaptation known as "tunicate larvae" that allows them to swim freely in the water before eventually attaching to a surface and metamorphosing into their sedentary adult form. They also have a filter-feeding system that allows them to extract food particles from the water efficiently. Additionally, sea squirts have a tough outer covering called a tunic, which protects their soft bodies from predators.


What do sea squirts look like?

Sea squirts, also known as tunicates, come in different shapes and sizes. They can be cylindrical, vase-shaped, or globular, with a tough outer coat made of a substance called tunicin. They often have two siphons, one to draw in water for feeding and the other to expel waste.


Is a contractile vacuole a food passageway?

No, some single celled organisms, protists, generally, live in hypotonic solutions of fresh water and if they did not have a method to " bail " out this water their cell would burst. So the contractile vacuole, which has filament motive forces, fills with water and then contracts which squirts the water out of the cell.


How do sea squirts and lancelets protect themselves?

sea squirts protect themselves by squirting out a jet of water, hence the name, and they also have a tunic which is a layer of tissue covering them that can be thick and tough or thin and translucent, which protects them from predators. Lancelets spend most of their lives buried in the sand with only their heads sticking out, and have a hood that covers the mouth and sensory tentacles surrounding it thus protecting their bodies from predators.


How does the water pressure change at each level in a jug?

In a jug, the water pressure increases with depth due to the weight of the water above exerting force. The pressure at the bottom of the jug is higher than at the top. This pressure difference is the reason why water squirts out with more force from a spout at the bottom than at the top.

When the squid squirts water to its right side which way will the squid move?

Left, because the idea of the water is to push the animal away from the expelled water.
