The role of a contractile vacuole is osmoregulation. This will store up excess water in the cell and expel it when needed and therefore creating a balance in the cell.

∙ 15y agoWell, let me explain... ok..., Vocuoles are in all plant cells and most animal cells. It is the little sack that holds all the water and liquified foods of the cell. thnx 4 listening! Marina959

What is the role of the central vacuole in plants?
It stores materials such as salts, carbs, water and contributes to plant growth by absorbing water and causing cells to expand.
A food vacuole can take up much of the what of a cell?
A food vacuole can take up much of the space on the inside of the cell. This is because it acts as storage for the cell.
What are the disadvantages of plant vacuole?
vacuole plays a major role in respiration and other metabolic activities. But the disadvantages thing is sometimes it covers many area in cytoplasm which reduce the area for other major contants.
What part of the body is similar to the vacuole?
a stomach because it stores materials

Explain the role of vacuole pressure in generating cell turgor in plants?
it does your mom H8R
Which organelle appears to be empty but is filled with liquid?
The vacuole appears to be empty, but it is actually filled with liquid called cell sap. The vacuole plays a crucial role in storing materials such as water, nutrients, and waste products in plant cells.
A food vacuole can take up much of the what of a cell?
A food vacuole can take up much of the space on the inside of the cell. This is because it acts as storage for the cell.
Can Central vacuole may take up between 50 percent and 90 percent of the cells interior?
Yes the central vacuole can take up to 50% and 90% of the interior of the cell. Because the vacuole in Elodea is transparent, it cannot be seen with the light microscope.
What does vacuole do in a cell plant?
A vacuole stores nutrients for later use in all cells including the plant cell
How much space does a vacuole take up?
not much :p
Is vacuole a site of photosynthesis?
No,photosynthesis do not take place there.It take place in chloroplast.

What is the role of the large centriole vacuole?
Its main role is to store substances. Also gives the shape to cell
