Despite the large size of T. namibiensis, its primary mechanism for nutrient uptake is still through normal diffusion. [35] T. namibiensis can perform normal diffusion due to the reduced amount of cytoplasm as a result of its large vacuoles. [13] These large central vacuoles, which act as reserves, are the source of the large size of T ...
Vacuoles are large intracellular storage organelles in plants cells. In addition to the ion channels in the plasma membrane, vacuolar ion channels have important functions in regulation of stomatal opening and closure because vacuoles can occupy up to 90% of guard cell's volume.
The anthocyanin-storing vacuoles of Rhoeo spathacea, a spiderwort, in cells that have plasmolyzed. Most mature plant cells have one large vacuole that typically occupies more than 30% of the cell's volume, and that can occupy as much as 80% of the volume for certain cell types and conditions. [21] Strands of cytoplasm often run through the vacuole.
Thioploca is a genus of filamentous sulphur-oxidizing bacteria, in the order Thiotrichales (class Gammaproteobacteria).They inhabit both marine and freshwater environments, forming vast communities off the Pacific coast of South America and in other areas with a high organic matter sedimentation and bottom waters rich in nitrate and poor in oxygen.
In Paramecium, which has one of the most complex contractile vacuoles, the vacuole is surrounded by several canals, which absorb water by osmosis from the cytoplasm. After the canals fill with water, the water is pumped into the vacuole. When the vacuole is full, it expels the water through a pore in the cytoplasm which can be opened and closed ...

Valonia ventricosa has a coenocytic structure with multiple nuclei and chloroplasts. [5] This organism possesses a large central vacuole that is multilobular in structure (lobules radiating from a central spheroid region). The entire cell contains several cytoplasmic domains, with each domain having a nucleus and a few chloroplasts. [5]
