Transcript: English(auto-generated)
00:06
The activity of the contractile vacuole of the ciliate perimatium requires ATP. With a lack of oxygen, respiration is inhibited and ATP synthesis comes to a standstill. Cell water can no longer be effectively pumped out and the cell therefore swells up and bursts.
00:29
Initially, the protruding plasma is still surrounded by a covering membrane which however is torn upon further swelling and the plasma is released into the surroundings.
00:46
After about 20 minutes, the cell is completely destroyed.
