A) contractile vacuole
B) mitochondria
C) nucleus
D) food vacuole
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
Unicellular organisms such as Amoeba, Paramecium use organelles called contractile vacuole for osmoregulation. These are freshwater living animals ie, they are lived in hypotonic solution. Therefore, water flows from outside to inside of the body of the organism. The contractile vacuoles in these organisms collect this excess water and gradually increases in size. When the vacuoles reach a critical size they contract, squeezing out their contents through the process of simple diffusion.
