Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The central vacuole can occupy as much as 90% of the volume of certain cells. The central vacuole is surrounded by a membrane called the tonoplast. The central vacuole has many functions. Aside from storage, the main role of the vacuole is to maintain turgor pressure against the cell wall.

Detailed explanation-2: -The strongest component of the cell wall is a carbohydrate called as cellulose, a polymer of glucose. When the additional layer of lignin is added to the primary cell wall a secondary cell wall is formed. Secondary cell wall increases the rigidity and strength of the cell.
