Phagosomes
A
found in unicellular organisms (food vacuoles)
4
Q
Lysosomes
A
found in eukaryotic cells
small membrane bound vesicles that contains digestive enzymes in solutions

Q
contractile vacuoles
A
found in unicellular organisms
play a role in the excretion of excess water
contract rhythmically in order to move to the cells surface to release the water
