A plants cells preferred environment is hypontonic. This means it likes lots of water, which fill up the central vacuole. The turgor pressure keeps it rigid and prevents it from wilting, (as plants do with lack of water)

The Cell wall keeps it rigid by allowing the central vacuole to hold a large amount of water without the cells bursting.

Animal cells do not have cell walls, so they burst in hypotonic environments

What feature does a plant cell have that an animal cells does not to store water?

Plant cells have a central vacuole that stores water, while animal cells do not have a central vacuole. The central vacuole in plant cells helps maintain turgor pressure and store nutrients, in addition to water storage.


What makes plant cells or tissue turgid?

The central vacuole in eukaryotic plant cells. The central vacuole pushes up against the cell membrane to form the structure of the plant. Without water in the central vacuole, the plant begins to wilt.

Do animal cells have a central vacuole?

No, animal cells do not have a central vacuole. Vacuoles in animal cells are smaller and more scattered throughout the cytoplasm, serving various functions such as storage, maintaining cell shape, and intracellular digestion.


Is vacuole found an animal cell or plant cell?
