Answer 1

$\blue{ \Large{\boxed{ \tt{ \red{Answer : }}}}}$

• The contractile vacuoles are the structures which are present in the cells of the lower organisms. The vacuole plays an important role in excretion and osmoregulation. The wastes like the ammonia can be excreted through the vacuoles. The water and the other salts are also removed through this vacuoles in order to maintain the osmotic balance.

Answer 2

Explanation:

The contractile vacuole acts as part of a protective mechanism that prevents the cell from absorbing too much water and possibly lysing (rupturing) through excessive internal pressure. The contractile vacuole, as its name suggests, expels water out of the cell by contracting.
