Yes, in general plant vacuoles are much bigger from those found in animal cells, this is their central vacuole. Plant vacuoles play large part in maintaining turgor pressure in the cell, which is how plants stay upright since herbaceous plants generally lack dedicated supportive tissue like bone. If their is not enough water available, or the cell is exposed to a hypertonic environment, the vacuole contracts and the plant will wilt.

What is same thing between animal cell and plant cell?
They both have vacoules and lines that make your body digest noisely.
Which is bigger animal cells or bacteria cells?
Plant cells are bigger than animal cells because they have a fixed shape and animal cells have an irregular shape. Plant cells also have bigger vacuoles and chloroplasts (which the animal doesn't have) therefore adding to its largeness.Edited answer:The largest single cell is an animal egg. this is so because in many cases (as in birds) this cell has to develop into a juvenile animal on its food reserves after getting fertilized.
Fluid filled spaces in the cell where food and water are stored?
Vacoules
What happens to the cell of a young animal as it grows?
The cell grow bigger
What are 3 differences between plant and animal cells?
animal cells have centrioles which plants do not have. animal cell are heterotrophs and plants are autotrophs plants cells have cell walls composed of cellulose and animal cells do not have any.
Why do plant cells have rigid cell walls while animal cells don't?
Two main reasons, one is support the other is to give a protective barrier like animal skins.
What is the difference between plant and animal vacoules?
in plant cell, the vacoule tends to be larger than in an animal cell, where it is smaller.

Why do animal cells have smaller vacoules?
Large vacuoles build turgidity ,so strong cell wall is needed .Animals do not have a cell wall
Why is the eukaryotic cell bigger in the plant cell then the animal cell?
Why is the Eukaryota cell bigger in the plant cell and not in the animal cell
Explain why each part of an animal cell is good at their job?
nucleus because it is the brain, vacoules cause they clean the cell, membrane cause it keeps the cell from spilling,
Who is the storage center in a plant cell?
vacoules
Which has a bigger nucleus a plant cell or an animal cell?
animal cell
Can all organelles in plants cells also be found in animal cells as well?
Some cells are similar like the vacoule. The vacoule is small for the animal cell but for the plant cell it much bigger. But the plant cell has a cell wall and the animal cell has no cell wall.
What is the function of vacoules?
A cell vacoules rides hippos and drinks pink lemonade at a quarter to three.
What are the differences between different animal cells?
Plants have a cell wall when animal cells don't. Also, plant cells have a a bigger vacuole then animal cells do.
Is a bacterium bigger than an animal cell?
Animal cells are bigger I think.
