The vacuole of a plant cell consists of a fluid-filled sac bounded by a single membrane called the tonoplast. It contains a substance called cell sap, which acts as a storage site for chemicals such as glucose and amino acids. It also provides an osmotic system that functions in the support of young tissues. Water can also enter the vacuole, causing the cell contents to be pushed against the cell wall, enabling the cell to become turgid.

Explain the role of vacuole pressure in generating cell turgor in plants?

Which organelle appears to be empty but is filled with liquid?
The vacuole appears to be empty, but it is actually filled with liquid called cell sap. The vacuole plays a crucial role in storing materials such as water, nutrients, and waste products in plant cells.
What is the role of the large centriole vacuole?
Its main role is to store substances. Also gives the shape to cell
What organelle helps move excess water?
A specific type of vacuole, called a contractile vacuole expels excess water from many fresh water protists.
Is vacuole a polysaccharide?
No, a vacuole is an organelle.
What is the role of the contractile vacuole'?
The role of a contractile vacuole is osmoregulation. This will store up excess water in the cell and expel it when needed and therefore creating a balance in the cell.
What is the role of the contractile vacuole?
The role of a contractile vacuole is osmoregulation. This will store up excess water in the cell and expel it when needed and therefore creating a balance in the cell.
What is the role of the central vacuole in plants?
It stores materials such as salts, carbs, water and contributes to plant growth by absorbing water and causing cells to expand.

What does vacuole do in a cell plant?
A vacuole stores nutrients for later use in all cells including the plant cell
What are the disadvantages of plant vacuole?
vacuole plays a major role in respiration and other metabolic activities. But the disadvantages thing is sometimes it covers many area in cytoplasm which reduce the area for other major contants.
What is the role of the large centriole vacuole?
Its main role is to store substances. Also gives the shape to cell
What part of the body is similar to the vacuole?
a stomach because it stores materials
What is the feture of vacuole in a plant cell?
Type "plant cell vacuole" into Google. "Vacuoles tend to be large in plant cells and play a role in turgor pressure. When a plant is well-watered, water collects in cell vacuoles producing rigidity in the plant. Without sufficient water, pressure in the vacuole is reduced and the plant wilts."
What role does the vacuole take?
The role of a contractile vacuole is osmoregulation. This will store up excess water in the cell and expel it when needed and therefore creating a balance in the cell.
What does the vacuole do in the cells?
It is the store house for water, minerals itc. and maintains the osmotic potential of the cell and plays a key role in photosynthesis.
