Correct answer: B). With fewer contractions


The main function of a contractile vacuole is to maintain the sufficient amount of water in the protoplasm of the cell. For the freshwater amoeba contractile vacuole is needed to pump water and maintain a osmoregulation.

But when it is kept in sea water, more contraction is required to expel the water out of the cell in order to make the environment inside amoeba same as of sea water.

50 points and brainleist how can i gain weight if i was born 4 days early than due date DON'T GOOGLE
ivann1987 [24]
Being born a few days before your due date shouldn’t cause a big difference in your health. To gain weight you should try to eat thing high in protein, healthy fats, and some carbs. Most people try to gain weight by eating foods with a lot of saturated fat (is potato chips) but try to maintain a diet with a good calorie intake.

However I am not a professional and if you are worried about your weight, go to a nutritional to see what meal plan they will give you

This is what I try to eat, I am 100 pounds, 5.2, female.
Eggs (taste terrible in my opinion but are extremely nutritious) for breakfast
Salad with chicken for one meal
Meat dish with rice, or vegetables, sometimes spaghetti
