Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
I am way bigger in plant cells than I am in animal cells. What am I?
A
Golgi Apparatus
B
Nucleus
C
Vacuole
D
Ribosomes
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The plant has the largest vacuole than animal cells because in plant cells the larger central vacuole performs two functions, one is to store water and the other is to help the plant remain upright.

Detailed explanation-2: -Why are plant cells generally larger in size compared to the animal cells? Plant cells comprise a large central vacuole that occupies a majority of the volume and makes the cell larger. This vacuole is usually absent in the animal cell.

Detailed explanation-3: -Vacuoles are membrane-bound organelles that can be found in both animals and plants. In a way, they’re specialized lysosomes. That is to say that their function is really to handle waste products, and by handle, mean take in waste products and also get rid of waste products.

Detailed explanation-4: -A vacuole is a membrane-bound subcellular structure involved in intracellular digestion. Instead of the large “vacuolar” organelles that are found in plants and fungi, animal cells possess lysosomes that are smaller in size and are enriched with hydrolytic enzymes similar to those found in the vacuoles.
