Is it true that Mitochondria are double membrane organelles.?
No,it is not the only organelle. Many other organelles have double membranes. Ex: Chloroplast,lysosoem,vacuole etc
What organelle helps move excess water?
A specific type of vacuole, called a contractile vacuole expels excess water from many fresh water protists.
The place where digestion takes place in many protozoa is called?
The place where digestion takes place in many protozoa is called the vacuole. The vacuole contains enzymes that help in breaking down food particles for absorption and energy production.
What determines whether or not a substance can be actively transported through the membrane?
Active transport can only occur at intact, closed membranes. Such membranes can envelop very different compartments, like the whole cell, vesicles, the vacuole, the mitochondrial matrix, the inner thylacoid space of the chloroplasts, etc.
How do large food particles exit an amoeba?
Amoeba ingests food by a process known as phagocytosis. The amoeba modifies its cytoskeleton to 'wrap around' the food particle with its membranes. The membrane then fuses, trapping the food particle in a vacuole inside the cell. The vacuole is then fused with a lysosome and the lysosomal enzymes will break down the food particle.

Structures found in plant cells but not animal cells?
Plant cells have cell walls as well as cell membranes; animal cells only have cell membranes. Also, plant cells would have chloroplasts (the organelles that turn sunlight into sugars). Animal cells usually have many smaller vacuoles (stores waste, water, and nutrients), while plant cells usually have one big vacuole.

How many membranes are in the chloroplasts?
Nucleus is surrounded by a double membrane.
How many membranes does cyoplasm have?
7
What are facts about the Central Vacuole?
its a vacuole
What is the outer covering of vacuole called?
The outer covering of a vacuole is called the tonoplast. This membrane surrounds the vacuole and helps regulate the movement of molecules in and out of the vacuole.
Which organelle is used for storage of food water or waste?
The vacuole is the organelle used for the storage of food, water, and waste in a cell. It helps maintain turgor pressure to provide structure and support to the cell, stores nutrients, and helps in the degradation of waste products.
