There are more than two functions for a vacuole. The function differs depending on the cell, and usually are related to storing or removing harmful chemicals. Some functions could include: storing waste products,storing water (mainly for plants), maintaining turgor pressure, maintaining acidity, isolating other harmful chemicals and exporting those chemicals.

What function does a vacuole have in a cell?
vacuoles store nutrients for later use
How do vacuoles in animal and plant cells relate to the function of vacuoles?
Vacuoles are used for temporarily storing materials and are generally larger in plant cells. Therefore they are able to hold more materials such as water and food for the plant cells. The vacuoles in plants control wilting.
