In plants, the vacuole stores food, water, and enzymes, and absorbs the waste products in the cell. In animal cells, smaller vacuoles are used to transport lipids and proteins out of the cell.

∙ 9y agoThe central vacuole is important because it stores food for the plant cell. It also stores water and other nutrients.

Because it helps in maintaining the osmotic potential of the cell.

Is the vacuole found within a plant cell or animal cell?
The vacuole is found within a plant cell and animal cell. The plant cells have a large, central vacuole while animal cells have small, multiple vacuoles.
What part of the cell is a storage unit?
Vacuoles is your answer. In plant cells Vacuoles are very large in animal cells vacuoles are much much smaller usually not even labelled in diagrams.
Describe the microscopic and functional organization of a cell?
The nucleus of a cell is the power source or brain, every cell has one there are two types of cells- an animal cell and a plant cell: An animal cell has a cell membrane, a cytoplasm which is the covering of the cell, stored food, a mitachondria used for breathing and a small vacuole which contains water orother substances A plant cell has a cell wall which surrounds it and gives it shape and support, a cytoplasm, large vacuole, choroplasts which make and store food, a mitachondria
What does a vacoule do?
Vacuoles can be found in plant cells, although the plant cell only has one vacuole. A vacuole stores water, food, and enzymes, and collects unwanted waste. A vacuole is a sac used to store water for the cell. Plant cells have a large vacuole. Animal cells have small vacuoles, if they have one at all. A vacuole maintains the acidic internal pH and also the turgor and hydrostatic pressure in the cells. They also isolate the harmful substances produced by cells which can harm its health. Vacuoles also protect cells from certain bacteria and destroy any invading bacteria.
What is the function of a permanent vacuole?
Vacuoles are membrane bounded sacs present in the cytoplasm of the cell. The function of a vacuole is to provide structural support in mature plants , as well as providing storage of food temporarily. A vacuole also serves functions of waste disposal, protection, cell growth etc.
What cell has a vacuole?
The plant cell has a vacuole.
Is Central vacuole a animal cell or plant cell?
The central vacuole is in the plant cell.
Is the central vacuole a plant or animal cell?
The central vacuole is in the plant cell.
Is Central vacuole a animal or a plant cell?
The central vacuole is in the plant cell.
What is found only in plant cells and stores water?
The vacuole stores food, water, and enzymes for metabolism. The vacuole can store large amounts of water. The vacuole is important in a plant.
What does a vacuole of a plant cell do?
A vacuole stores materials in the cell.
How are plant vacuoles from animal vacuoles?
Plant cell vacuole is larger then animal cell vacuole
Is vacuole in a plant cell or in an animal cell?
in plant cell
Is a vacuole both animal or plant?
The vacuole is only in the plant cell.
Is the vacuole plant or animal?
The vacuole is in fact only in the plant cell.
Where in the cell is the vacuole?
Vacuole is located within the cell. It is found in plant cell but little or no vacuole is found in animal cell
Is there a vacuole in a plant cell or animal cell or both?
The vacuole is only in the plant cell which is a jelly like thing in the centre of it :)
