How does the contractile vacuole in a single-celled organism function to maintain homeostasis?

Biology

Anni [7]3 years ago

Answer:

It pumps water out of the cell; as water enters the organism's cells via osmosis (diffusion of water), the contractile vacuole acts very much like a pump to allow water to exit the organism; without it the organism would die. Also, homeostasis is maintained in this manner; all it means is a condition of stability.
