What is Vacuolel Presence in plant or animal cells?

vacuoles are present both in plant and animal cells. in plant cells they are large and occupies the centre of the cell. their main function is the storage of various substances required for plants and also gives turgidity to the cell. in animals they are small. sometimes modified to perform specialised functions like contractile vacuoles.

What types of eukaryotic cells have vacuoles that act like lynsosomes?

Vacuoles are found in plant and fungal cells because sometimes the vacuoles act like lysosomes. A vacuole is a vesicle. They contain enzymes that help a cell digest particles. The large central vacuole in plant cells stores water and other liquids. Large vacuoles full of water help support the cell. Some plants wilt when their vacuoles lose water.
