NEET BIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -The vacuole acts as an organelle that maintains the turgor pressure of the cell. Also, they store water, metabolites and nutrients. Their function is significant in plant cells as they cannot move to find nutrients and water. Thus, plant cells have larger vacuoles than animal cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -A plant cell contains a large, singular vacuole that is used for storage and maintaining the shape of the cell. In contrast, animal cells have many, smaller vacuoles.

Detailed explanation-3: -Vacuoles are larger in plant cells than in animal cells because plant cells have more membrane-bound organelles. Plant cells have many membrane-bound organelles, and they need to store water and nutrients. The vacuoles are the most important of these.

Detailed explanation-4: -Vacuoles, cellular membrane-bound organelles, are the largest compartments of cells, occupying up to 90% of the volume of plant cells.

Detailed explanation-5: -To store food and water: They are equipped with a large vacuole in comparison to animal cells since the plants are immobile to gin nutrition from surrounding and they need to store as much food they can(an evolutionary feature to support survival).
