Detailed explanation-1: -A vacuole is a membrane-bound cell organelle. In animal cells, vacuoles are generally small and help sequester waste products. In plant cells, vacuoles help maintain water balance.
Detailed explanation-2: -The vacuole is the cell organelle that stores excess water and gives support and rigidity to a plant cell.
Detailed explanation-3: -Plants have large vacuoles because they store water in them. When you water a plant it is the vacuole that takes up all that water from osmosis.
Detailed explanation-4: -The central vacuole is a large vacuole found inside of plant cells. A vacuole is a sphere filled with fluid and molecules inside a cell. The central vacuole stores water and maintains turgor pressure in a plant cell.
Detailed explanation-5: -Many plant cells have a large, single central vacuole that typically takes up most of the room in the cell (80 percent or more). Vacuoles in animal cells, however, tend to be much smaller, and are more commonly used to temporarily store materials or to transport substances.
