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: -A large vacuole can make up around 95% (in some plants) of the plant cell and is rather unique to plants. Also called the central vacuole, its main job is to maintain turgor pressure inside of the plant. Turgor pressure helps the plant keep its shape by pressing the plasma membrane against the cell wall.
Detailed explanation-3: -Photosynthesis takes place in chloroplasts; cell walls allow plants to have strong, upright structures; and vacuoles help regulate how cells handle water and storage of other molecules.
