• A. Near trailing end
• B. Near advancing end
• C. At the middle of body
• D. Any where inside body

Answer 1

The correct option is A Near trailing end

The contractile vacuole is an organelle that is involved in osmoregulation. It is found in Amoeba and algae. It is present at the posterior part of the amoeba near the trailing end. It is filled with water. It opens outside to remove the excess water by the process of osmoregulation. Along with water, it also removes waster material.

So, the correct answer is 'Near trailing end'
