Best Answer

In animal cells (eukaryotes), vacuoles are usually larger then lysosomes. This is mainly because vacuoles are constantly stretching to accumulate and store materials for the cell while lysosomes on the other hand are responsible for maintenance of the cell, which for the most part, deals more with removing things from the cell rather then engulfing them.
