Is the food vacoule formed hollow?

Open in App
Solution

yes,they are holow.Food vacuoles form when thefood is pushed toward the cell where the membrane bends inward. As the food pushes against the membrane, the membrane stretches inward until the food particle is completely in the cell, where the membrane then pinches off, forming avacuole. This form of eating is called phagocytosis.
