A vacoule is the excretory organelle of the cell. It regulates the turgidity of the cell by regulating the amount of water inside the cell. The vacoule always has some amount of water present inside it. If the cell contains more water, it absorbs the water and allows it to diffuse out of the cell. If the cell contains less water, the water from the vacoule will re-enter the cell to maintain its turgidity.

Large vesicles that stores enzymes or liquids?
The special vesicles containing enzymes are called Lysosomes.
Homeostasis in snakes?
homeostasis helps maintain a constant stable condition in an organism
Is the vacuole found within a plant cell or animal cell?
The vacuole is found within a plant cell and animal cell. The plant cells have a large, central vacuole while animal cells have small, multiple vacuoles.
How do bunny maintain homeostasis?
A rabbit is able to maintain homeostasis with its fur coat and the ability to shiver.
Do zombies have homeostasis?
yes
How does amoeba homeostasis?
It uses the Contractile Vacuole to pump out water. amoebas are retarted
How does a contractile vacuole in a paramecium help maintain homeostasis?
it pumps water into the cells
What cell process is the vacuole a part of?
The vacuole is part of many processes in plants. These processes include osmoregulation, storing amino acids, managing the homeostasis of cell ph and other degradative processes.
How does the concractile vacuole in a paramecium help maintain homeostasis?
They arf type of excretory organell.They remove excess water from cell.
How does a vacuole help maintain homeostasis in a cell?
storage of needed components or cellular waste
What pumps excess water from the cell helping to maintain homeostasis?
The vacuole is usually the organelle that pumps water out of the cell. Most of the time protists do this.
How do contractile vacuoles help maintain water balance in a paramecium?
The paramecium contains a vacuole called a contractile vauole. By contracting rhythmically, this specialized vacuole pumps excess water out of the cell. the control of water content within the cell is just one example of an important process known as homeostasis. Homeostasis is the maintenance of a controlled internal environment.
What cells need hypotonicity to be at homeostasis?
paramecium, since it lives in fresh water, it has a contractile vacuole so that it doesn't gain too much water and burst
One important organelle that helps maintain homeostasis?
Cellular membrane
What three ways does the skin assist with homeostasis?
By sweating, becoming oily, and preventing water and blood from escaping the body, acting like a barrier.
Mechanisms of a Vacuole?
An acidic vacuolar environment is necessary for activation of many vacuolar functions, while a neutral environment is required for most cytoplasmic functions. The mechanisms by which pH homeostasis is achieved are still not clear
What fuses with a lysosome?
A vacuole, then the contents of the vacuole empty into the lysosome and get digested. A vacuole, then the contents of the vacuole empty into the lysosome and get digested.
