D
Vacuole
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Vacuoles are membrane-bound sacs within the cytoplasm of a cell that function in several different ways. In mature plant cells, vacuoles tend to be very large and are extremely important in providing structural support, as well as serving functions such as storage, waste disposal, protection, and growth.

Detailed explanation-2: -The vacuole is the most conspicuous organelle in plant cells. Because of its large volume, it is involved in storing many inorganic and organic molecules, and in so doing, functions in homeostasis.

Detailed explanation-3: -The sacs used for storage in the cell and considered to be the storehouse of the cell are known as Vacuoles. Vacuoles are present in the cytoplasm of cells. Vacuoles are known as storehouse because it stores water, salts, minerals, minerals, and waste products.

Detailed explanation-4: -A vacuole stores salts, minerals, pigments and proteins within the cell. The solution that fills a vacuole is known as the cell sap. The vacuole is also filled with protons from the cytosol that helps in maintaining an acidic environment within the cell. A large number of lipids are also stored within the vacuoles.

Detailed explanation-5: -Vacuoles are called the storage sacs of the cell as it stores the solid as well as the liquid materials of the cell.
