Answer: The contractile vacuole found in the single cell organism helps in the movement of water from inside to outside of the cell.

In case of single celled organism, the process of homeostasis is performed by the help of vacuoles.

When there is an excess of water inside the cell and there is an imbalance in the solute concentrations inside the cell.

In this case, vacuoles helps in pumping the water out of the cell. This is how homeostasis is maintained inside the cell.

Suppose that a biologist states that the average height of undergraduate students at your university is 205 cm plus or minus a s
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

This means that the means height (which is all the sum of the height of all the students divided by their number ) is 205 cm. Standard deviation means how the height of the students deviates from this mean since students do vary in height and are not all the same height of 205 cm. Therefore, in this case, the amount of standard dispersion of the students' height is by 17 cm on either lower or higher side of the mean.
