Vacuoles are a prominent feature of plant cells where they have several functions. Plant vacuoles serve as a "cellular trashbag" for all sorts of compounds and ions such as salt, mineral nutrients, heavy metals and organic compounds, that would be toxic if they were in the cytoplasm.
- Plant vacuoles accumulate enough dissolved compounds to give the plant cell a low enough osmotic potential to absorb water via osmosis.
- In conjunction with the cell wall, the vacuole functions to provide turgor for plant cells. Turgor is required for the cell enlargement that is essential for growth.
- Vacuoles can store protein or carbohydrates.
- Vacuoles may contain hydrolytic enzymes and function in degradation.
