NEET BIOLOGY

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: -Vacuoles appear to have three main functions, they: contribute to the rigidity of the plant using water to develop hydrostatic pressure. store nutrient and non-nutrient chemicals. break down complex molecules.

Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -The central vacuole stores water and maintains turgor pressure in a plant cell. It also pushes the contents of the cell toward the cell membrane, which allows the plant cells to take in more light energy for making food through photosynthesis.
