Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -Vacuoles store nutrients and water on which a cell can rely for its survival. They also store the waste from the cell and prevents the cell from contamination.

Detailed explanation-3: -The vacuole holds large amounts of water or food. Don’t forge that vacuoles can also hold the plant waste products. Those waste products are slowly broken into small pieces that cannot hurt the cell. Vacuoles hold onto things that the cell might need, just like a backpack.
