If you're wanting to know about plant cells and central vacuoles, the plant cell would not be able to effectively hold water or keep turgor pressure where it needs to be, so the plant would wither.

In animal cells "vacuoles" can refer to many things- phagocytic vesicles, endocytotic vesicles, etc.

In that case "vacuoles" is a poor choice of term because all of the structures that were previously considered vacuoles in animal cells have been formally named and identified for purpose.

What would happen if the lysosome were to open up in a cell?

Since lysosomes are vacuoles containing cell digestion enzymes, the cell would be digested from the inside out.


What would happen without vacuoles?

Without vacuoles, plant cells would lose their ability to store water, nutrients, and waste products, leading to issues with turgor pressure and overall cell stability. Additionally, essential cellular processes such as maintaining cell shape, regulating pH, and storing toxic compounds would be compromised.


Is the vacuole a bad cell part?

No, the vacuole is not a bad cell part. In fact, vacuoles play important roles in plant and fungal cells such as storing nutrients, maintaining turgor pressure, and storing waste products. Without vacuoles, these cells would not be able to perform their functions effectively.
