Plant cells have just one large central vacuole, functioning as a site for the cells' waste. That is why people claim they can 'smell rain'. A law of nature states that high pressure regions always move into low pressure regions. When a low pressure front is over you, the higher pressure of the plant-cell central vacuoles cause the waste contents to move out of the cells and into the atmoshpere.

Do animals contain central vacuoles?

As far as I know, they don't. some animal cells do have vacuoles, but they are not as big as those in plant cells. also, an animal cell can have many small vacuoles. some animal cells do not have vacuoles, because the functions that vacuoles carry out in a plant cell are performed by the lysosomes of the animal cell.


Why is a plant cell vacuole bigger than an animals vacuole?

An animal cell have many small vacuoles in the same amount of space as plant cells, on the other hand, a plant cell have one or two big vacuoles in the same amount of space.

How does the central vacuole in a plant cell arise?

There are many small vacuoles present in a developing plant cell . they merge with each other during ontogony of cell .this results in formation of a large central vacuole in plant cell .Vacuoles grow by uptake of waer .
