The paramecium would not be able to get rid of excess water so the cell would burst.
FUNCTION OF THE CONTRACTILE VACUOLE:
- The contractile vacuole is an organelle present in protist organisms like paramecium, amoeba etc.
- The contractile vacuole functions to regulate water balance in the cells of organisms that they are found. Contractile vacuole performs this function by storing excess water and expelling the out of the cell.
- Hence, if a disease affected a paramecium's contractile vacuoles, stopping the normal functioning of the vacuoles, the paramecium would not be able to get rid of excess water so the cell would burst.

Answer:
The cytosolic and mitochondrial pools of CoA are kept separate, and no radioactive CoA from the cytosolic pool enters the mitochondrion.
Explanation:
- Fatty acyl group condensed with CoA in the cytosol are first transferred to carnitine and in this process, CoA is released.
- After this, it is transported into the mitochondrion, where it is again condensed with CoA.
- In this way, the cytosolic and mitochondrial pools of CoA are kept separate, and due to this reason, no radioactive CoA from the cytosolic pool enters the mitochondrion.
- Therefore, according to the given question, the C14 CoA that is added into the liver homogenate along with palmitate shows cytosolic radioactive fraction but not mitochondrial as in the mitochondria a different CoA joins palmitate and not the one containing C14.
