Question

name the phenomenon which helps fresh water unicellular
organisms ( eg amoeba) continuously gain water in their bodies Also
name the mechanisms by which these organisms throw out excess of
water from their bodies

G. Lakshmi · Accepted Answer

It is through a process called osmoregulation

The Contractile Vacuole of amoeba, slowly fills with water from the
cytoplasm and while fusing with the cell membrane, it quickly
contracts releasing water to the outside by exocytosis

This process regulates the amount of water present in the cytoplasm
of the amoeba

name the phenomenon which helps fresh water unicellular organisms ( eg amoeba) continuously gain water in their bodies. Also name the mechanisms by which these organisms throw out excess of water from their bodies.
