Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Where do plant cells store, food, water, and waste?
A
nucleus
B
chloroplast
C
vacuole
D
cell membranes
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Vacuoles are like storage bubbles which are found mostly in plant cells. They occupy most of the portion of plant cells. These are used for storage of food, water, amino acids, sugars, organic acids and some proteins. They also store toxic metabolic by-products or end products of plant cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -Vacuoles are storage bubbles found in cells. They are found in both animal and plant cells but are much larger in plant cells. Vacuoles might store food or any variety of nutrients a cell might need to survive. They can even store waste products so the rest of the cell is protected from contamination.

Detailed explanation-3: -Vacuoles are fluid-filled organelles used mainly as storage compartments. Depending on the cell type, they can hold things like enzymes, waste, food, and water.

Detailed explanation-4: -Among its roles in plant cell function, the central vacuole stores salts, minerals, nutrients, proteins, pigments, helps in plant growth, and plays an important structural role for the plant.

Detailed explanation-5: -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.
